MADRID (Reuters) – A Spanish aid worker was killed when a missile hit the vehicle she was travelling in in Ukraine, Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares said on Sunday.
“Unfortunately, I can confirm a missile hit a vehicle in which this Spanish worker was travelling who was working for a humanitarian NGO in Ukraine. We have verbal confirmation of her death,” Albares told reporters in India where he attended the G20 meeting.
Albares did not name the aid worker.
A Canadian aid worker also died in the attack on Saturday in Chasiv Yar, in the region of Donetsk in eastern Ukraine, authorities said.
