In this Aug. 6, 2014, photo, displaced Iraqis who fled from their towns after advances by Islamic militants take shelter in Najaf, Iraq. Some 50,000 newly displaced Shiite Turkmen arrived the Shiite holy city of Najaf, where they are safe for now _ but not without extreme hardship. They journeyed several hours across Iraq's sprawling deserts. Some traveled without food or water in the blistering heat made worse by an overcrowded buses of hysterical refugees _ many of them far less fortunate, having lost a relative or two at the hands of the unforgiving militants who view them as apostates.
