Pete Reed led medical teams during the Battle for Mosul in Iraq, treating over 10,000 trauma patients.
Volunteer and Marine veteran Pete Reed was killed while helping civilians in Bakhmut during the Russia-Ukraine war, Global Response Medicine said.
"This is a stark reminder of the perils rescue and aid workers face in conflict zones as they serve citizens caught in the crossfire. Pete was just 33 years old, but lived a life in service of others, first as a decorated US Marine and then in humanitarian aid. GRM will strive to honor his legacy and the selfless service he practiced," the statement said.Reed was also listed as the Ukraine country director on the Global Outreach Doctors' website.
"We are in touch with the family and providing all possible consular assistance," the State Department spokesperson said. "Out of respect for the privacy of the family during this difficult time, we have nothing further to add." "He was evacuating civilians and responding to those wounded when his ambulance was shelled. He died doing what he was great at, what gave him life, and what he loved, and apparently by saving a team member with his own body," the post said.
