Not long after midnight in late May this year, three men barged(闯入) through the door of the small room where Nicole Soalala lived with her family on the outskirts(郊区) of Toliara, a coastal city in the south of Madagascar. Her husband got up to ask what they wanted, but they attacked him with a piece of wood and an axe(斧头).
今年5月下旬，午夜刚过，三名男子闯入了妮可·索阿拉拉与家人居住的小房间，他们住在马达加斯加南部沿海城市图利亚拉郊区。她的丈夫起身询问他们想要什么，但他们用一块木头和一把斧头袭击了他。
Soalala, 32, grabbed her youngest child, Landricia – an 18-month-old girl with albinism(白化病) – and hoisted(举起) her on to her back, holding her there with a piece of fabric(布料) she started to wrap around herself. Her eldest daughter, 15, hid under the table with her other two children, aged six and three.
32岁的索阿拉拉一把抓起她最小的孩子兰德里西亚——一个18个月大的白化病女孩——把她举到背上，用一块布裹住自己，把她固定在那里。她15岁的大女儿和另外两个6岁和3岁的孩子躲在桌子底下。
As Soalala’s husband lay on the floor on the verge of losing consciousness, the attackers turned their attention to her.(当索阿拉拉的丈夫躺在地上，濒临失去意识时，袭击者把注意力转向了她。) “I felt that I was the one they were coming for and I waited to die,” she says. “But then the one with the axe suddenly started trying to pull my child away from me.”
当索阿拉拉的丈夫躺在地上，濒临失去意识时，袭击者把注意力转向了她。“我觉得他们就是冲我来的，我等着死，”她说。“但接着那个拿斧头的人突然开始试图把我的孩子从我身边抢走。”
