Joint Special Representative Ibrahim Gambari strongly condemned this attack which, he stressed, constituted a war crime. He committed the Mission to work closely with the Government of Sudan authorities in order that the perpetrators are apprehended as fast as possible and brought to justice.
Since the initial deployment of UNAMID on 31 December 2007, 35 peacekeepers have been killed as a result of hostile action.
