Aid Workers Kidnapped in Somalia
November 6, 2008
Four European aid workers and two Kenyan pilots were kidnapped November 5 by gunmen in Somalia, according to Reuters.
The aid workers — two French women, a Bulgarian woman, and a Belgian man, all working with the French group Action Contre La Faim — and the pilots were taken from an airstrip in the town of Dusamareb, said witnesses. The abductions are the latest in a series of such strikes against humanitarian groups working in the African country.
