    Richard Kasimba, a @WFP colleague in Democratic Republic of Congo, was killed Monday during an ambush as he drove to monitor a food distribution. I met Richard when I visited DRC last year; his death is a sad reminder that humanitarian workers should never, ever be a target.pic.twitter.com/FZkRahsEeB

        Richard left behind a wife and nine children, 3-23 years old. His colleagues around the world -- many of whom also put their lives on the line every day -- are mourning his loss.

        This is a horror to all those who in deep fields and away from political games serve the most needy among us. My wholeheartedly condolences to his family and to all my WFP colleagues and friends.

        May his soul and those of other health workers killed in the course of duty through the mercy of God RIPP. Our prayers go out to the loved ones left to mourn their loss. These killings are senseless; no one shld die striving to keep others alive and healthy.
