The journalists pay their respect to Ukrainian journalist Taras Protsyuk killed while covering the war in Iraq during his funeral on Baikove cemetery in downtown Kiev on Sunday, April 13, 2003. Protsyuk, a 35-year-old TV cameraman for the Reuters news agency, was killed Tuesday when a U.S. tank fired on the Baghdad hotel in which he was working. Protsyuk worked in Kiev's Reuters bureau since 1993 covering the military conflicts in Bosnia, Chechnya, Afghanistan and Kosovo. Last time Protsyuk lived and worked in Warsaw with his wife and 8-year son. Some 11 journalists died in Iraq since the war began, Taras Protsyuk was the 10-th.
