AP Cameraman Killed in Iraq
Iraqi police in the northern town of Mosul say gunmen have killed a cameraman working for the Associated Press. Police say Aswan Lutfalla was having his car repaired when a firefight broke out nearby. He went to film the clash and was apparently deliberately shot by gunmen.
Lutfalla is the second AP Television News cameraman to be killed in Mosul in the last two years.
Last week, a U.S. press advocacy group said 89 journalists have been killed in Iraq since the U.S. - led invasion in March 2003.
在伊拉克北部城市摩苏尔的伊拉克警方说,枪手打死了一名为美联社工作的摄像记者。警方说,当枪战爆发的时候,阿斯万.卢特法拉正在附近修理他的汽车。他前往拍摄冲突现场实况,随后看来被枪手蓄意打死。
卢特法拉是两年来在摩苏尔被枪手打死的第二名美联社电视摄像记者。
上星期,一个美国记者权益组织说,自从以美国为首的联军在2003年3月进入伊拉克以来已经有89名记者被打死。
