A Kenyan woman is comforted by a Red Cross worker after getting information about her loved ones that were on board Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302, at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi, March 10, 2019. The Rome-based WFP, which takes the lead in feeding millions of people across the world and in the Horn of Africa, lost seven employees.
Buzzetti, around 30, had been with the WFP for almost four years as a consultant and office assistant. Speaking to Italian newspaper Il Messagero, Buzzetti’s mother said her daughter usually called her upon arrival, and she immediately sensed that something was wrong when there was no call on Sunday.
According to Italian TV channel Rai, Spini was a retired doctor whose “love for Africa” had intensified after his retirement, the mayor of their hometown said. They were identified as Sara Chalachew, Getnet Alemayehu, Sintayehu Aymeku and Mulusew Alem, all senior managers who had been with the organization for a long time.
The Norwegian Refugee Council, which works with displaced people in crisis zones, confirmed Monday that two of its staff members were passengers on the flight.
