U.N. Official Killed in Israel

The U.N. officials in the Jenin camp were on the phone with the Israeli military, trying to arrange the safe evacuation of the U.N. staff, when Hook was killed, Mshasha said.

``Several bullets hit the trailer and hit him,'' Mshasha said. ``We managed to send an ambulance to transfer him to the hospital, but he was dead when he reached the hospital.''

The Jenin Hospital director, Mohammed Abu Ghali, said the bullets retrieved from the victim's abdomen were of the kind generally used by Israeli troops.
