Aid workers freed


Here is a story from the Irish Times regarding Goal Aid Workers Sharon Commins and Hilda Kawuki freed after they were kidnapped and held hostage in Darfur.

The women were kidnapped this past July amidst a time when Aid work is becoming more and more dangerous. They underwent a series of mock executions - knowing that their captors could actually kill them at any time. Sharon Commins said that their friendship is what kept them positive.
