Linda Norgrove, 36, who was employed by US aid group DAI, was kidnapped with three local staff last month.
In a statement, Foreign Secretary William Hague said the aid worker was "killed at the hands of her captors in the course of a rescue attempt".
He said: "Working with our Allies we received information about where Linda was being held and we decided that, given the danger she was facing, her best chance of safe release was to act on that information.

This is of course a very sad ending however certain UK sources have indicated that Miss Norgrove had links to US security services.
