According to COOPI, the two humanitarian health workers, who had been taken hostage last week in the north-west of the Central African Republic, are free again. They’re back “safe and sound”. It was the first time that humanitarian aid workers had been abducted. The security situation in parts of the north-west remains fragile. No ransom was paid. All humanitarian and development agencies in the country are glad about this outcome. Click here for the story on Reliefweb.
