Some 200 UN service workers have been killed since the war broke out in the Gaza Strip on 7 October. Until this death, the victims were all Palestinians.
A United Nations service member was killed in the Gaza Strip when a vehicle he was traveling in came under fire, a spokesman for the Secretary-General announced on Monday.
This is the first foreign UN service member to be killed in the Gaza Strip, Farhan Haq said. Another staff member—the UN Security Service (DSS)—was injured. Neither the nationality nor the gender of the two persons were specified.
The white vehicle in which the staff members were riding had the UN logo prominently displayed, the spokesman said. He was headed to a hospital.
