Northern Iraq's displaced get own radio station

A radio station catering specifically to northern Iraq's large displaced population began broadcasting on Sunday near the Kurdish capital Arbil. "This radio station is for all those who were forced from their homes, for all the refugees," Pascal Gollnisch said in Radio Al-Salam's inaugural broadcast.
Gollnisch is a French Catholic priest whose organisation L'Oeuvre d'Orient helps Christians in the Middle East and backed the new station.
He is part of a delegation of several French groups supporting the broadcaster, which will put out several hours of programming daily on 95.5 FM.
"As its name suggests, it is a radio station for peace, that also gives practical help in the daily lives of all the displaced," Gollnisch said. Some 2.5 million people have been displaced by conflict in Iraq since the beginning of 2014.
