Description :
“At 4 in the morning an attack started, we sheltered at home for over an hour, but the gunfire was getting very close, so we fled. 3 of the older children helped me carry the young ones, we saw dead bodies as we fled. It took us 2 days of walking to reach safety, but I knew I had to protect my family”.
