In a turn of events that gripped the nation, a Polish medical volunteer, known for her dedication to providing healthcare in some of Chad’s most remote regions, was safely released after a harrowing kidnapping ordeal. The volunteer, identified only as Aleksandra, was abducted by unidentified assailants last Sunday but is now under the care of doctors, confirmed Poland’s Foreign Minister, Radosław Sikorski.
“Aleksandra has been freed and is in good health, a piece of news I had the privilege of sharing with her family,” Sikorski announced, bringing a sigh of relief to an anxious public. The minister personally called the volunteer’s family to deliver the news, underscoring the government’s hands-on approach to ensuring the safety of its citizens abroad
The release was made possible through the collaborative efforts of local Chadian services and allied French forces, highlighting the international cooperation that often goes unnoticed in crisis situations. “I commend the swift action and cooperation between our countries. Your prayers have been answered; your daughter will soon be home,” Sikorski expressed in a heartfelt message to the volunteer’s family.
The Circumstances of the Kidnapping
Aleksandra was kidnapped from Saint-Michel Hospital in Dono Manga, over 400 kilometers from Chad’s capital, N’Djamena. The region, known for frequent abductions for ransom, became the unlikely stage for this recent act of violence. The hospital, operated by Caritas, lost one of its most devoted volunteers to the kidnappers’ greed for a brief period.
The kidnapping occurred in broad daylight, exploiting a momentary absence of the soldiers typically guarding the facility. Reports indicate that the abductors, including two men accompanied by a fake policeman, took advantage of the security lapse, leaving the local community and international observers in shock.
Accompanying Aleksandra was a Mexican doctor, also abducted but later abandoned by the kidnappers during their escape. He revealed that their captors assured them that their intention was not to harm but to secure a ransom, a small consolation in the face of such a blatant violation of human rights.
Aleksandra’s release marks not only the end of a terrifying experience for her and her loved ones but also serves as a reminder of the risks faced by international volunteers. The incident has sparked conversations about the security of humanitarian workers and the importance of international cooperation in ensuring their safety.
Despite the ordeal, the spirit of service and dedication to humanitarian causes remains undeterred. Sikorski’s announcement not only celebrated Aleksandra’s release but also highlighted the ongoing commitment of Polish volunteers and the global community to aiding those in need, even in the face of danger.

In a turn of events that gripped the nation, a Polish medical volunteer, known for her dedication to providing healthcare in some of Chad’s most remote regions, was safely released after a harrowing kidnapping ordeal. The volunteer, identified only as Aleksandra, was abducted by unidentified assailants last Sunday but is now under the care of doctors, confirmed Poland’s Foreign Minister, Radosław Sikorski.
“Aleksandra has been freed and is in good health, a piece of news I had the privilege of sharing with her family,” Sikorski announced, bringing a sigh of relief to an anxious public. The minister personally called the volunteer’s family to deliver the news, underscoring the government’s hands-on approach to ensuring the safety of its citizens abroad
The release was made possible through the collaborative efforts of local Chadian services and allied French forces, highlighting the international cooperation that often goes unnoticed in crisis situations. “I commend the swift action and cooperation between our countries. Your prayers have been answered; your daughter will soon be home,” Sikorski expressed in a heartfelt message to the volunteer’s family.
The Circumstances of the Kidnapping
Aleksandra was kidnapped from Saint-Michel Hospital in Dono Manga, over 400 kilometers from Chad’s capital, N’Djamena. The region, known for frequent abductions for ransom, became the unlikely stage for this recent act of violence. The hospital, operated by Caritas, lost one of its most devoted volunteers to the kidnappers’ greed for a brief period.
The kidnapping occurred in broad daylight, exploiting a momentary absence of the soldiers typically guarding the facility. Reports indicate that the abductors, including two men accompanied by a fake policeman, took advantage of the security lapse, leaving the local community and international observers in shock.
Accompanying Aleksandra was a Mexican doctor, also abducted but later abandoned by the kidnappers during their escape. He revealed that their captors assured them that their intention was not to harm but to secure a ransom, a small consolation in the face of such a blatant violation of human rights.
Aleksandra’s release marks not only the end of a terrifying experience for her and her loved ones but also serves as a reminder of the risks faced by international volunteers. The incident has sparked conversations about the security of humanitarian workers and the importance of international cooperation in ensuring their safety.
Despite the ordeal, the spirit of service and dedication to humanitarian causes remains undeterred. Sikorski’s announcement not only celebrated Aleksandra’s release but also highlighted the ongoing commitment of Polish volunteers and the global community to aiding those in need, even in the face of danger.
