HÀ NỘI — The Vietnam Department of Peacekeeping Operations will hold a memorial service on January 19 for Lieutenant Colonel Đỗ Anh, who died while on a UN peacekeeping mission.

The department said on Monday that the memorial service would take place at the National Funeral Hall, Trần Thánh Tông street, Hà Nội.

He will be laid to rest at the Nhổn martyrs’ cemetery in the capital city’s Bắc Từ Liêm District on the same day.

Anh was born in 1983 in the northern province of Nam Định and lived in Bắc Từ Liêm, Hà Nội, and was sent to the Central African Republic to work as a military observer in 2021.

Đỗ Anh passed away at 6am on January 6, 2022 (local time) at the field hospital No. 3 in Nakasero, Kampala, Uganda.
