Format
Geneva (ICRC) – The International Committee of the Red Cross is profoundly saddened that two of our colleagues were among those killed in Aden's airport explosion earlier today. One other ICRC colleague is unaccounted for.
Our staff were transiting through the airport with other civilians when the explosion occurred. Three were injured, including one seriously.
"This is a tragic day for the ICRC and for the people of Yemen," said Dominik Stillhart, ICRC's director of operations. "The Yemeni people have endured a terrible amount of suffering over the last five years. A day like this adds even more grief both for the Red Cross family and for the Yemeni families who had loved ones killed or injured in this explosion."
