A recent air strike on humanitarian vehicles resulted in the death of one driver. The trucks were clearly marked and en route from Dilling to Kadugli. An investigation into the incident has been called for by the World Food Programme, who also extend condolences to the driver's family and colleagues.

The circumstances of the incident are still being gathered, including the extent of damage to the food cargo. This attack follows another incident in which a truck struck an explosive device after delivering food assistance in the same area. Further details about the incident and its aftermath are available from the source.

The World Food Programme urges those involved in hostilities to respect international humanitarian law and protect civilians.
