BBC said:I start my day by taking a bath and praying. I listen to the news while I have my breakfast, then I get dressed for work, and always kiss my wife and my children before leaving the house - everyone here does the same these days, because everyone knows when they leave home that they may not return.
BBC said:In just the blink of an eye, my whole life will have ended for nothing. Hot shrapnel will hit me, I suppose, and I wonder if I will even hear the explosion. I wonder what it would be like for bullets to tear through my body.
Every day this is how the living imagine the way in which they will die. And being blown up is only one of a long, long list.
BBC said:God knows how much I fear motorbikes, especially the fast ones, with two riders.
One of them drives the motorbike and the other one fires from a pistol equipped with a silencer.
The memory of the remains of the university professor assassinated by shots to the head in precisely this way will never leave me.
