SARAF UMRA, Sudan, March 12 (UPI) -- Three staff members of Doctors Without Borders were reported held by kidnappers in the war-torn Sudanese province of Darfur, the humanitarian group said.

A Canadian nurse, an Italian doctor and a French coordinator of the Belgian branch were abducted Wednesday night. Two Sudanese staffers also were taken but were released, police told CNN.

It amazes me that they still would kidnap someone whose only purpose there is to help the sick and injured. They seem to do more harm to themselves and their own families by doing things like this. What would happen if no one volunteered to go to those places. Prayers to those who were taken.
