The danger journalists face covering the war in Ukraine was shockingly illustrated last night as Sky News released harrowing footage of their team coming under fire.
Chief correspondent Stuart Ramsay was hit by a bullet in the lower back while in a car carrying his crew towards Kyiv on Monday.
Two rounds also hit camera operator Richie Mockler in his body armour during the ambush.
Footage shows bullets striking the car and the team screaming as glass smashes around them.
It is thought the attack was carried out by a saboteur Russian reconnaissance squad.
After a tense standoff, the team miraculously ran for their lives using a concrete wall for cover before finding shelter in a factory unit.
They were later rescued by Ukrainian police.
The whole crew, including Sky News' Dominique van Heerden and Martin Vowles, are now safe and back in the UK.
The fifth member of the team, local producer Andrii Lytvynenko, is back with his family in Ukraine.

Unfounded
Without evidence
You're sucking up propaganda from the very same Media outlets that told you the "election" wasn't stolen.
If you want to be a mindpuppet of the TechnoDicktaters that froze the bank accounts of the Canadian truckers and anyone who contributed to them, be my guest.
Soros, Klaus Schwab and all their WEF pals always have room in their Great Reset bed for one more...
Zalenskyy is telling those who want to fight to keep fighting (They say are no longer fighting “Russians,” instead, they are fighting “Kremlin Forces”.)
I’d think that would make a dangerous situation for the civilians, could a Russian soldier quickly tell the difference between an unarmed civilian and an armed one?
I actually laughed at the Reddit kids who were horrified that the “journalists” were getting shot at. In a war zone.
These kids have really been brainwashed.
I thought they all read Hemingway—who travelled through Europe with a personal army.
The only member of the press who was at I Drang, at least from the start was Galloway. He wrote the book. If Safer was there, it was at the end.
Gotta have some false flag to start WW-III.
I’m not sucking anything. I don’t give a rip what these two nations are doing to each other- again.
I mistook your reply, then.
My apologies.
I agree with your post, here:

My only concern is that the Media inciters get what's coming to them.
No problem. I’m seeing high gas prices, like other Americans, high food prices. None of this has anything to do with what is going on half a world away in a place with a long and bloody history and a part of the world most Americans have never heard of.
Exactly.
The account I’m thinking of was after they had landed back at the main base and the wounded are brought in and the reporter is using them as props.
One of the heroes at Ia Drang came to the call again on 9-11. Rick Rescorla. He worked as head of security for one of the big firms in the towers. After the bomb attack in the basement he and some other vets brain-stormed on how to ramp up security.
They all agreed that the terrorists would go for something bigger next time. They came up with the idea that they would fly airliners into the buildings!
Rick trained his company on evacuating the building. Training alarms, etc. When everyone else was told to shelter in place, Rick already had his people heading down the stairways.
He was last seen going back up the stairs after his people had escaped so he could help other floors.
