Yesterday 17 people were killed in an ambush on a humanitarian convoy in South Sudan, including 5 humanitarian workers. Yet again. South Sudan is one of the deadliest places for aid workers. How many more lives must be lost before international humanitarian law is respected? #SouthSudan #HumanitarianCrisis #AidWorkers #SS #
