From the news reports:

Running her operation on a shoestring, Ruzicka was accompanied only by Faiz Ali Salim, 43, who served as her driver and translator. An unemployed commercial pilot, Ali Salim had become Ruzicka's right-hand man in Iraq after the war. Now the father of an infant and once again flying for Iraqi Air, he was doing his last tour with Ruzicka. ...

"He loved to work with her due to the nature of her work as a humanitarian," said Ali Salim's brother, Najah.
