NEWS / Attack on UN vehicle in Afghan capital leaves one staff member dead


29 June 2010 – The United Nations has confirmed that one of its vehicles was shot at this morning in the Afghan capital, Kabul, resulting in the death of one staff member.

“The United Nations condemns violence against any of its personnel under any circumstances,” the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA), said in a statement.

“Those responsible for this killing should be brought to justice without delay.”

Two Afghan staff members were travelling in the vehicle when it came under fire, reportedly at a busy traffic circle in the city. The other staff member was unharmed.

“The circumstances of the shooting are not yet clear,” the mission stated, adding that UN security teams are working with Afghan security institutions to assist investigations.

The UN offered its sincere condolences to the family of the deceased staff member, whose name has not yet been released.

Last October five UN staff members lost their lives and several others were injured during an attack on a UN guesthouse in Kabul, for which the Taliban claimed responsibility.
