Agence France-Presse journalist killed in rocket attack in Ukraine
French international news agency Agence France-Presse says its Ukraine video co-ordinator was killed Tuesday during a rocket attack near the eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut.
“His death is a terrible reminder of the risks and dangers faced by journalists every day covering the conflict in Ukraine,” said AFP chairman Fabrice Fries. In May 2022, French journalist Frederic Leclerc-Imhoff, who was working in Ukraine for BFM-TV, was killed near Severodonetsk in the east.
