Tea Ceremony for Military and Police Advisors of Troop Contributing Countries
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 (pictured at second from left). 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.
Family members of Private Chitete poses for a photo during a tea ceremony held for the Military and Police Advisors of Troop Contributing Countries to the UN Peackeeping Operations.
