Dublin/Hamburg - Two aid workers for the Irish organization Goal have been kidnapped from the Darfur crisis region of Sudan, the group's spokesperson told Irish radio RTE Friday evening. John O'Shea said unknown armed abductors had broken into a Goal office in northern Darfur and kidnapped an Irish woman, age 32, and a Ugandan aid worker.
The abduction marks the third time since March that foreign aid workers have been kidnapped from Darfur, according to the British broadcaster BBC.
Since the outbreak of conflict in 2003, more than 300,000 people have been killed and more than 2 million people have been displaced.
