A well-known Iraqi journalist working for al-Arabiya television and two members of her crew were kidnapped and killed while reporting on the shrine attack in Samarra.

The bodies of Atwar Bahiat, 26 - a Sunni who had previously worked for al-Jazeera - and her cameraman Adnan Khairallah and soundman Khaled Mohsen, were found on the outskirts of town.

An official from the Dubai-based station said one of the crew managed to escape from the ambush and informed police. [Source]
