"A coroner has returned a verdict of unlawful killing on ITN reporter Terry Lloyd, who was killed in southern Iraq.
An inquest heard Mr Lloyd, 50, died after being hit by a US bullet near Basra in March 2003. His interpreter died and his cameraman is missing.

Mr Lloyd was covering the British and American invasion of Iraq as a "unilateral" journalist, rather than "embedded" with the military.

The National Union of Journalists (NUJ) said the killing was a "war crime".
