Russia's Channel One has confirmed that its cameraman Anatoly Klyan died in Ukraine's Donetsk Region from a gunshot wound to the abdomen.
"Tonight, our colleague Anatoly Klyan, cameraman for the Channel One, died in Donetsk," the TV channel's statement said, adding "The tragedy happened near one of army units, where the crew came to film a report. At the site, shots were unexpectedly fired from the side of the servicemen. Anatoly Klyan received a fatal gunshot wound to the abdomen. He was 68 years old." The trip to the army unit was organized by the press service of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic. Journalists were travelling in a bus with soldiers' mothers who intended to demand that their sons return home from the service.
Earlier, Speaker of the Supreme Council of the self-proclaimed Donetsk Republic Vladimir Makovich said a journalist had died in the region. "A journalist was heavily wounded, doctors could not save him. He died in a hospital," Makovich said. However, he did not specify what media the journalist represented.
