“… The meeting was drawing to a close when a colleague burst into the room. Normally it would have not been proper to interrupt this kind of meeting, but he was obviously shaken by something that had happened. Interrupting the military commander, he said, ‘Most of you know that our organization has worked in Somaliland for decades. I have just been informed that this morning 4 Somali believers we have worked with in separate incidents, have been ambushed and killed on their way to work. Our office has already received an ultimatum telling us that if our organization doesn’t get out immediately, everyone who works for us would be killed.'”~Nik Ripken
