Following the attack, he further said, through “close and intensive” coordination with UNIFIL, the Indonesian government, the Lebanese government, and medical teams in Beirut ensured that immediate and optimum medical treatment was provided.
However, due to the severity of Pramudia’s injuries, he passed away despite all efforts to save his life, the spokesman said.
Jakarta, he added, continues its “close” coordination with UNIFIL to ensure that the repatriation of the deceased is carried out promptly and with full dignity.
With Pramudia’s death, six UNIFIL personnel have now been killed and several others seriously injured during the current escalation.
