Waandishi wawili wa habari wa Reuters wamejeruhiwa huku dereva wao akiuawa baada ya gari walilokuwa wakilitumia kushambuliwa Mashariki mwa Ukraine katika Jiji la Sievierodonetsk
Tukio hilo ni mwendelezo wa maumivu wanayopata waandishi wa habari katika vita ya taifa hilo dhidi ya Urusi.
Waliojeruhiwa ni mpigapicha Alexander Ermochenko na mrekodi video Pavel Klimov walikuwa wakitumia usafiri uliotolewa na Urusi.
Jina la dreva ambaye alipewa kazi hiyo na Reuters halijatambulika, Urusi haijasema chochote kuhusu shambulizi hilo.

Two Reuters Journalists Injured, Driver Killed in Eastern Ukraine
Two Reuters journalists were injured and a driver was killed on Friday after the vehicle they were in came under fire while heading to the eastern Ukrainian city of Sievierodonetsk, the latest battle line in Russia's assault on its neighbor.
Photographer Alexander Ermochenko and cameraman Pavel Klimov were traveling in a car provided by Russia-backed forces on the Russian-held part of the road between Sievierodonetsk and the town of Rubizhne, 10 kilometers (6 miles) to the north.
Reuters could not immediately establish the identity of the driver, who had been assigned to Reuters by the separatists for the reporting trip. The Ukrainian Defense Ministry did not respond to a telephone call seeking comment on the incident.
Ermochenko and Klimov were taken to a hospital in Rubizhne where they received initial treatment, Ermochenko for a small shrapnel wound and Klimov for an arm fracture.
"Reuters extends its deepest sympathies to the family of the driver for their loss," a Reuters spokesperson said in a statement.
In recent weeks, Russia has poured its forces into the battle for Sievierodonetsk, a small factory city in the east, which Russia must capture to achieve its stated aim of holding all of Luhansk province.
Both sides have been taking punishing losses there in a street-by-street battle that could set the trajectory for a long war of attrition. Moscow describes its presence as a "special military operation" to disarm and "denazify" Ukraine.
