A story that really stood out to me this week was the deaths of French photographer Remi Ochlik and the journalist Marie Colvin. The pair were killed in Syria, by rockets said to have been targeted at the house they were staying in, by government forces.
According to many news sources, the Syrian conflict has been very difficult for many journalists to cover - Colvin and Oclik were not the first to be killed during the uprising.
I first heard about this story when listening to NPR news yesterday, and it truly saddened me to hear about these journalists losing their lives. I feel that the random shellings that are occuring in Syria, illustrate that the European Union needs to attempt to do something... anything... to help to mollify issues in Syria.
Below is Marie Colvin's last story covering the Syrian uprising:
