A TV cameraman for Britain's Sky News has been shot dead while covering the clashes in Egypt, the network says.
Mick Deane, a 62-year-old father of two, had worked for Sky for 15 years and had been based in Washington DC and Jerusalem.
He was covering the crackdown by Egyptian police on pro-Morsi supporters in two camps in Cairo on Wednesday morning when he was killed.
British Prime Minister David Cameron said on Twitter: "I am saddened to hear of the death of cameraman Mick Deane, covering Egyptian violence. My thoughts are with his family and Sky News team."
Head of Sky News John Ryley described Deane as "the very best of cameramen, a brilliant journalist and an inspiring mentor to many at Sky".
