Khalid’s past: a jigsaw reading (3)

The Somalia years: Posing as a Red Cross worker, Khalid bribed a pilot to fly him from Nairobi to the Somali town of Luuq where he delivered $40,000 in cash to a Somali warlord… The conditions at Luuq were dire. At times the insurgents only survived by eating sugar. Khalid fought for two days straight until he and his men ran out of ammunition. Reduced to throwing stones, most were killed.
