Deadliest year for aid workers, United Nations reports 281 deaths in 2024

GENEVA: More aid workers, health care staffers, delivery personnel and other humanitarians have been killed in 2024 than in any other single year, the United Nations reported Friday.

Bloodshed in the Middle East has been the single-biggest cause of the 281 deaths among humanitarians globally this year, according to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.

"Before the year is even over, 2024 has become the deadliest on record for humanitarian personnel worldwide," OCHA spokesman Jens Laerke said. He told reporters in Geneva the figure surpassed the previous record of 280 deaths for the whole of last year.
