MSF Launches International Media Campaign for Volunteer Kidnapped in Dagestan Four Months Ago

By running this simple advertisement in more than 25 newspapers worldwide, Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) hopes to raise international awareness about Arjan Erkel's abduction in the Russian Republic of Dagestan on August 12, 2002.
