French Journalist Still Missing in Baghdad

HeadlineJan 07, 2005

Meanwhile, there is still no news on the fate of a French newspaper reporter and her Iraqi interpreter who disappeared earlier this week in Baghdad. Veteran war correspondent Florence Aubenas of France’s Libération newspaper was last seen leaving her Baghdad hotel Wednesday morning. An Editor at the newspaper said Libération’s reporters no longer travel outside of the Iraqi capital because of attacks and the risk of kidnappings. Two other French journalists who were kidnapped in Iraq in August, were released two weeks ago.
