Two Iraqi journalists working for ABC News in Baghdad were killed as they drove home from work on Thursday, the US television network has said.
Cameraman Alaa Uldeen Aziz and soundman Saif Laith Yousuf were ambushed and killed by unknown assailants after leaving ABC News's Baghdad bureau.
Some 104 journalists and 39 media workers have been killed since the US-led invasion of Iraq in 2003.
