JOURNALISTS UNDER ATTACK IN UKRAINE
This h0spitalization occurred in the wake of American journalist Brent Renaud’s d3ath, wh0 was k:lled in Ukraine over the weekend.
Filmmaker Renaud, 51, was reportedly sh0t d3ad while fleeing from Russian soldiers wh0 opened fire at him just outside Ukraine.
Renaud previously contributed to the New York Times, th0ugh he was not on assignment with the Times, according to the newspaper’s deputy managing editor.
Renaud’s colleague, Juan Arredondo, was with the filmmaker when it happened and was wounded in his lower back.
These attacks come as Kremlin blocked websites such as the BBC, Facebook and Twitter in an attempt to increase censorship within Russia.
