Two other Ebola patients have also been flown to Germany for treatment: a World Health Organization (WHO) employee, who had worked in Sierra Leone, was brought to Hamburg, and was successfully treated and released him last week. A second patient, a Ugandan doctor and WHO worker, also contracted the virus in Sierra Leone but remains in hospital in Sierra Leone.
But on Tuesday morning it was announced that the UNMIL employee had died. It was not clear whether he was a soldier or a civilian.
The Liberia News website reported that 41 other members of UNMIL had been placed under observation, including 20 of their soldiers.
The UN mission has been active in Liberia since September 2003, in the aftermath of the country's civil war which killed up to 250,000 people.
UNMIL initially consisted of 15,000 personnel, including military observers and staff officers, and UN police officers who were tasked with maintaining law and order throughout the fragile state.
Currently there are 9,387 UN staff members in the country, and the UN had been looking to reduce its presence in the region.
The majority of UNMIL staff are from Bangladesh or Pakistan, but other countries including China, Nigeria, Ghana and Nepal also currently contribute personnel.
