Paris -- The French charity Action Contre la Faim (Action Against Hunger) said yesterday it was suspending its mission to Sri Lanka following the massacre of 15 of its staff in the country.
"These humanitarian workers were clearly identified by their T-shirts as members of a non-governmental organization," said the group's director, Benoît Miribel.
ACF earlier said it had recovered the bodies of its staffers -- all Sri Lankan nationals -- from its office in the northeastern town of Muttur, where heavy fighting has pitted Sri Lankan troops against Tamil Tiger rebels. AFP
