A journalist working with RT Arabic, Khaled Alkhateb, has been killed in shelling from Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) side in the eastern suburb of Homs, Syria.
The journalist was filming a report on the Syrian Army’s operations against ISIS terrorists.
Khaled Alkhateb was just 25 years old and had recently started to work with RT.
He appears to have last been online just six hours ago. His post on Facebook reveals his location in Al-Sukhnah, Syria, with his comment, “Oh, God.”
Cameraman Muutaz Yaqoub, who was working with Khaled Alkhateb, was injured in the shelling. He was sent to a hospital in Homs with minor injuries.
