Fox News' Pierre Zakrzewski and Oleksandra Kuvshinova killed in Kyiv


Two journalists working for Fox News have been killed in Ukraine, staff at the US network say.

Cameraman Pierre Zakrzewski, 55, and Oleksandra Kuvshinova, 24, were killed when their vehicle was struck by incoming fire in Horenka, on the outskirts of Kyiv.

Their colleague, Benjamin Hall, 39, was wounded and remains in hospital.

Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott said it was a "heartbreaking day" for the organisation.

Ms Scott said Zakrzewski's "passion and talent as a journalist were unmatched".

"Pierre was a war zone photographer who covered nearly every international story for Fox News from Iraq to Afghanistan to Syria during his long tenure with us," she said.
