Caption Description Medal ceremonies were held today at United Nations Headquarters in observance of the International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers (29 May). Members of peacekeeping operations who lost their lives during service were honoured with the Dag Hammarskjöld Medal. The Captain Mbaye Diagne Medal, given to UN personnel who demonstrate exceptional courage in the face of extreme danger, was awarded to the late Chancy Chitete of Malawi, and received by his widow Lachel Chitete Mwenechanya. Private Chitete was honoured for his ""brave and selfless"" action during an operation in the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) in November 2018, when he sustained fatal injuries while saving a fellow UN peacekeeper, who survived.
Jean-Pierre Lacroix, Under-Secretary-General for the Department of Peace Operations, makes remarks during the event.
