Topic: Current Events 8:56 am EDT, Apr  9, 2003

] Jack Straw today declared he was "very concerned" about
] the killing of journalists in Iraq and said he would
] demand detailed information about their deaths.
]
] And the foreign secretary is seeking a detailed account
] of what happened yesterday when three journalists - two
] from Reuters and one from al-Jazeera - in two separate
] attacks by US forces on media headquarters in Baghdad.

The colonel in charge of the tank that fired said they had reacted after seeing enemy "binoculars" being used in the hotel.

The attacks on the hotel and the headquarters of al-Jazeera have fuelled speculation about a deliberate targeting of the media, particularly since the Pentagon had been told of the Arab satellite TV channel's exact location in Baghdad two months ago.
