Kako se ruski vojnici ophode prema novinarima u Osetiji? Da li je tamo rat? Puca li se?
Mozda odgovore nadjete na ovom snimku

ideo has emerged of the moment a team of Turkish journalists came under fire in South Ossetia while covering the escalating conflict between Russia and Georgia.
A reporter was shot in the eye when their vehicle came under attack while driving through the South Ossetian capital, Tshinvali, on Sunday.
In footage shot by a camera rolling in the back of their car, Levent Ozturk, driving the team, said: "Friends, I got hit on the head. I am OK now, but in a few minutes..." Guray Ervin, a cameraman, was shot in the shoulder.
The team can be heard reciting final prayers as they try desperately to reverse out of the firing line. As the shooting comes to an end, they wave through the battered sunroof of their truck and shout "Press! Press!"
After the incident Mr Ervin said: "Some 10-15 soldiers sprayed our car with weapons for at least 4 or 5 minutes. I could not move the vehicle since the engine broke down. We shouted at the soldiers that we were journalists. We also took our t-shirts off and waved them out of windows. Some 4 or 5 minutes later, soldiers approached us."
It appeared their vehicle was targeted by Ossetian combatants.
The pair were treated at a Russian military hospital in Tshinvali before returning to Turkey, the Anatolia news agency reported, quoting diplomatic sources. The two other members of the team escaped unharmed.
In a separate incident near the besieged Georgian town of Gori, Tamara Urushadze, a correspondent for Georgian state television, was shot at by a sniper while conducting a live report. The bullet clipped her left arm, leaving her bleeding.
After being hit, Ms Urushadze took cover behind a vehicle with her cameraman before being given first aid by a Reuters television producer who witnessed the incident. While being bandaged, Ms Urushadze continued her report, informing viewers that she had been hit.
As one of her team belatedly gave her a flak jacket, she said: "I have been hit by a bullet. You can see I am scratched here. Most likely it was a sniper. It has most likely been a light weapon since it's a minor wound."
