UN reopens investigation into former Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjöld's death

The United Nations is reopening the investigation into the death of its former Secretary-General, Dag Hammarskjöld, questioning whether countries concealed evidence.

Background

Dag Hammarskjöld, the second UN Secretary-General, died in a plane crash in 1961 while on a peace mission to Congo amidst its post-colonial crisis. Investigations at the time concluded it was an accident, but questions about potential foul play and withheld information have persisted for decades, leading to renewed scrutiny.
