Letters from the women of Birao.
The population refers to the three waves of attacks upon their homes (and upon them) as "the events".

Third woman:
"During the events, with my three kids...who do I take with me? Where do I go? How do I leave? Thanks to my neighbours... take a child on my back and a child in my arms. My neighbour takes a child. I take something to eat, and some clothes. In my head, things like fear. Those things cannot be forgotten, but still we will forget them. The pain for women, this can never end..."
