Four Wycliffe Bible Translators Murdered by Militants in Middle East - christiannews.net


Excerpts from this article:

"According to Wycliffe, a raid took place on the translators’ office. Two of the translators were shot and killed, while another two died of wounds from being beaten. These last two managed to protect and save the lead translator by lying on top of him while the militants beat them with their now-empty weapons. The militants also destroyed translating equipment, including Print on Demand equipment, books, and translation materials. However, Wycliffe says the militants did not destroy the 'computer hard drives containing translation work for eight language projects.'”
