Two Journalists Killed in Turkish Drone Strike in Iraqi Kurdistan
-----------------------------------------------------------------

In news from Iraq, two journalists were killed on Friday in a Turkish
drone strike. The journalists, Gulistan Tara of Turkey and Hero Bahadin
of Iraq, worked for the Kurdish outlet Stêrk TV. A third journalist was
seriously wounded. Another journalist working for a Kurdish outlet was
killed last month. Reporters Without Borders says Iraqi Kurdistan is
becoming one of the most dangerous areas in the world for reporters.
