Description |
02/09 a Malaysian media crew covering the intervention of a Malaysian charity that had just arrived in Mogadishu was shot at by an AMISOM convoy in the vicinity of K4. One journalist was killed and another injured. The incident probably illustrates the state of tension of the AMISOM soldiers - always under threat of an IED/suicide attack, the absence of visual recognition of humanitarian agencies/journalists and their armed escorts and a possible lack of preparation on the side of many new agencies/charities/journalists who have flooded Mogadishu since the beginning of August. |
