In Mogadishu, Somalia, Dr. Abdulkadir Adan created the country's first and only free ambulance service staffed mainly by volunteers. This Somali dentist has made it his mission to serve his people and save lives.
Al-Shabab Islamists were dislodged from the capital in 2011, but terrorist attacks continue to regularly plague civilians. To help the victims, the ambulance drivers do not hesitate to put themselves in harm's way.
Sabir, a young father, has been a volunteer driver for Aamin Ambulance for 5 years. Last year, he was seriously injured in an attack. Despite the after-effects that are still causing him pain, he is back driving his ambulance.
Ambulance drivers are on all fronts. They transport sick children, pregnant women about to give birth, victims of car accidents... In a country where public services are lacking, for many inhabitants, they are the only option in case of emergency.
