“It is being reported that British photographer and filmmaker Tim Hetherington and Pulitzer Prize-nominated photojournalist Chris Hondros have been killed while covering the conflict in Libya.
Fellow photographer André Liohn reported the news on his Facebook page with this message: “Sad news Tim Hetherington died in Misrata now when covering the front line. Chris Hondros is in a serious status. Michel Brown and Guy are wounded but fine.”
In the comments that followed, Liohn – who said he was at the hospital with both photographers – added that Hondros had later also died. BJP is trying to ascertain the identity of “Guy”.
According to Business Insider, Hethrington tweeted yesterday: “In besieged Libyan city of Misrata. Indiscriminate shelling by Qaddafi forces. No sign of NATO.”
