[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I sympathize with her family, but generally take a dim view of milenials (sic) traveling to this part of the world.

I don't know what their policies are or recruiting challenges, but Doctors W/out Borders should not be sending a 23 year old. [/quote]

According to the New York Times, Doctors Without Borders contracted the Syrian guy to fix their internet and were surprised she showed up with him:

She had arrived in Syria a day earlier with a Syrian man who has been described as her boyfriend or colleague.

He had been contracted to fix the Internet connection at a Doctors Without Borders office, and employees of the international charity were flabbergasted when Ms. Mueller showed up with him.

Syria was then a no-go zone for most international aid workers, said employees of the charity, who explained that they had reluctantly housed her overnight and agreed to drive her to a bus station for what was supposed to be her trip back to Turkey.

Her car was ambushed on the way, and she and her Syrian companion were abducted. He was later freed and has declined to speak about what happened.
