Wow so this is how your Peace Corps mission ended? I am sorry. It´s just so sad... And I cannot even imagine what the locals will do now :(

Yep, about a week after the news was shared we were packed up and boarding a plane. Such is the nature of Peace Corps work - one of the 10 core expectations states that we must "Serve where the Peace Corps asks you to go, under conditions of hardship if necessary, and with the flexibility needed for effective service." So you could say we are warned.
Yeah but still... it must have been so hard/sad to just leave everything and everyone behind, all of a sudden :(
