The aid agency Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF), has expressed shock at the killing of one of its local staff in Sudan’s war-torn Darfur region.
The aid worker was shot in front of its warehouse in an attack on Labado last week, a spokesman confirmed.
MSF says it will continue its presence in Darfur, but called for aid workers’ neutrality to be respected.
On Tuesday, UK charity Save the Children withdrew from Darfur after four of their staff were killed.
When you’re trying to save people that others want dead, and to free people that others want enslaved, there’s really no such thing as “neutrality.”
