The identity of the deceased has not been disclosed. However, according to reports from Antigua and Barbuda’s state-owned Antigua and Broadcasting Services, the individual was reportedly part of a UN delegation tasked with assisting in the preparations for the forthcoming fourth Conference on Small Island Developing States (SIDS4).
This major event, scheduled from May 27-30 in the twin-island nation, aims to bring together thousands of delegates.
The list of attendees includes high-profile figures such as heads of State and Government.
