It is with great sorrow that I acknowledged the news on the fatal attack on a staff member of @WFPYemen.
I most strongly condemn the attacks against humanitarian staff. They, just like civilians, must never be a target❗️
My thoughts are with his family and colleagues.
<div class="rsshub-quote">
Cindy McCain: I strongly condemn the ruthless murder of our @WFP team member in #Yemen today.
Moayad was a dedicated humanitarian. He served WFP with tireless commitment for 18 years in Sudan, Syria & Iraq.
Those responsible must be held accountable. Aid workers should never be a target.
