Bangladesh’s contribution to the peacekeeping efforts of the UN has consistently been one of the largest
It is a matter of great pride for Bangladesh that the United Nations has chosen to mark the International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers by honouring eight peacekeepers from Bangladesh who lost their lives in the line of duty.
They will be awarded the Dag Hammarskjold Medal, given to military personnel, police, or civilians who were killed while bravely serving in a UN peacekeeping operation, in addition to 121 others, and we as a nation are grateful for their services towards leaving the world a much better place.
