Statement by Spokesperson Jessica Jennings
USAID is devastated to learn that a staff member of our USAID/West Bank and Gaza Mission was killed on Friday in Jaffa, Israel. He was a dedicated member of our team for more than two decades, and our thoughts are with his family, friends, and colleagues. We are working with the U.S. Embassy to ascertain further details about this fatal incident and how it will be investigated.
