 GAGA, Chad (AP) - Fatma Daoud wrapped a plastic bag as a makeshift bandage around her hand — using a corner of brightly colored robe to wipe the blood from the deep, gaping knife wound that had cut her down to the bone.
The 36-year-old woman, a refugee from Sudan's war-torn Darfur, had left her camp in eastern Chad to gather firewood when she was attacked by young Chadian nomads.
"They were three boys, camel herders. They told me to stop collecting wood and then they stabbed me," Daoud said, calm despite the attack that had happened only minutes before outside the Gaga refugee camp.
