Juje Posted January 28, 2008 Somalia blast kills four including two aid workers By Sahra Abdi Ahmed KISMAYU, Somalia, Jan 28 (Reuters) - Two Somalis and two foreign aid workers from the Dutch arm of Medecins Sans Frontieres were killed by a roadside bomb on Monday near the southern Somali port of Kismayu, witnesses said. "A roadside bomb blast targeted an MSF-Holland car, killing two foreigners, one Kenyan and the other a white man, and a Somali driver and a Somali journalist who was passing by on the road," witness Hussein Abdi told Reuters. A Reuters reporter saw the bodies in the vehicle. MSF-Holland could not be immediately reached for comment. Kismayu, a strategic port, is under the control of the local clan, not Somalia's interim government. The government is engaged in fighting a year-long insurgency led by Islamist militants in the capital Mogadishu, where it and its Ethiopian allies are frequently targets of roadside bombs and ambushes. During a two-week offensive in late 2006 and early 2007, Ethiopian and Somali forces cornered the insurgents near Kismayu and further south, towards the Kenyan border. Kismayu has been quiet compared with Mogadishu, but Islamists have threatened attacks there and elsewhere as part of their stated aim of establishing Islamic rule in the Horn of Africa country.

Jacaylbaro Posted January 28, 2008 Why should i be amazed ,,,, Poor Somalis are dying everyday and those Aid workers are not better than them. It is just a proof that the situation is getting worse these days ,,,,, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faarax-Brawn Posted January 28, 2008 ^That is a horrible mentality abtigiis. They came to help,what was caused by Somalis. The least you should do as a Somali is,feel empathy for these brave people who left their peaceful country to save a soul or two. Useless,trivial question unrelated to this: The title says "Saraakiil MSF Spain oo ku dhintay Qarax goor dhaw ka dhacay Magaalda Kisimaayo/ . Now,I know my Somali Grammer is not at its best, but,someone correct me, the correct translation for aid workers is not SARAKIIL,correct? :confused: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Faarax, "saraakiil" means "officers", in the sense of military officers, colonial officers, medical officers, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for the saraakil question,at the risk of turning this topic into a trivial one,i am still not convinced that its the right terminalogy for an aid worker. Sarakil,is to my knowledge arabic term for "government worker". In swahili,it strictly means "government worker". Now,an NGO as MSF is not a govt entity and as search should not be called a "sarkaal",me thinks. Which begs the question,what is the right somali terminology for an NGO worker or an NGO for that matter? :confused: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All victims (except a local somali journalist) had worked for the Ductch branch of aid organisation Medicines sans Frontieres. They were Doctors without borders. I am very sorry to hear innocents aid workers whose whole pupose of being in somalia was to help, has probably been killed in this way. They Weren’t sarakiil. Sarakil or sarkaal is askari right. We cannot call a sarkaal to a Doctor or can we. :rolleyes: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
