UNITED NATIONS: UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres was outraged over the drone-attack killing of a UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) staffer in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), a UN spokesman said.
"Our colleague Karine Buisset was killed in a drone strike on a building that was housing aid workers, " said Stephane Dujarric, chief spokesman for Guterres on Wednesday.
"Karine was a dedicated humanitarian who worked tirelessly to support children and families impacted by conflict and crisis."
Peacekeepers from the UN mission in the DRC responded for emergency support and conducted an initial assessment of the strike in Goma, he said.
