Lost boys of Swat flee for their lives as fighting rages

Twenty well-behaved boys sit on the floor in two rows, quietly eating a humble lunch of flat bread, water and beans. A moment of prayer and reflection for the orphans and one of their teachers. Their hair is neatly combed and they are dressed in spotless Pakistani shalwar kamiz long shirts and baggy trousers. These boys are orphans, and they are lucky to be alive.
"Sir, it was very dangerous," explained 15-year-old Mohammad Nawaz. Last Friday, Nawaz and his friends escaped from Pakistan's Swat Valley after their orphanage ended up on the front-line of the government's war with the Taliban.
