In a statement, the organization stressed the urgency of ensuring their operations continue uninterrupted, stating, "We can't provide life-saving interventions without access and safety for our staff and volunteers.

It is crucial that we are granted access to continue our humanitarian efforts without hindrance." The statement did not specify the perpetrators behind the attacks on their vehicles or the injuries sustained by their staff and volunteers.
