ABC电视台两伊拉克籍记者遇袭被杀 (Two Iraqi Journalists from ABC Killed in Baghdad Ambush)

美国电视网美国广播公司ABC说，该电视台巴格达分社的两名伊拉克籍记者遭到伏击后丧生。这家电视台说，巴格达身分不明的枪手星期四傍晚在摄影师阿齐兹和录音师尤素夫下班回家途中袭击了他们的车辆。

美国广播公司驻巴格达记者麦卡锡赞扬了伊拉克摄制组成员的勇敢精神和所做出的贡献。他说，失去这两名记者“令人痛心”。记者权利组织报告说， 自从伊拉克战争2003年开始以来，已经有100多名记者被打死，其中大部份是伊拉克人。

The U.S. television network ABC says two Iraqi journalists from its Baghdad bureau have been ambushed and killed. The network says unknown gunmen in Baghdad attacked the vehicle carrying cameraman Alaa Uldeen Aziz and soundman Saif Laith Yousuf as they were returning home from work late Thursday.

ABC's Baghdad correspondent Terry McCarthy praised the bravery and contributions of Iraqi camera crews, and he said the loss of the two journalists "hurt." Press rights groups report that more than 100 journalists, mostly Iraqis, have been killed since the war began in 2003.
