Deeply relieved that my colleague and friend @DrTedros is now safe and sound and back with his family in Geneva. I wish our injured @WFP_UNHAS colleague & n crew member speedy recovery. Civilians, humanitarians, @UN workers must never be a target.

Thank you to all my friends, colleagues, and everyone who has wished me well during the ordeal in the past few days.

I'm especially grateful to the colleagues and airport staff, who were selfless as they tried to protect me.

We faced a very dangerous attack, but my @UN colleagues and I are now safe. We successfully evacuated our wounded colleague to Amman, and he is stable.

My heart goes out to our colleagues on the front lines and the civilians who face such danger every day.

I am on my way back home to Geneva.
