US official shot in Darfur
 A US government official on a humanitarian mission in Sudan's Darfur region has been shot in the face after her convoy was ambushed. The US State Department said it was too early to determine whether the aid worker was targeted on Tuesday because she was an American official. "At this point I think it's too early to say whether the person was targeted because she was a US official but obviously that possibility is on our minds," State Department spokesman Adam Ereli said. The worker, who was not identified, was receiving medical treatment in Sudan and her injuries were not life threatening, Ereli said, adding the United States was working to have her evacuated.Posted by: Fred 2005-03-23 |
