'Stop filming': Al Jazeera team in eastern Ukraine briefly detained by soldiers - Al Jazeera English
This is the moment when Al Jazeera’s Charles Stratford and his team in eastern Ukraine were stopped and questioned by Ukrainian soldiers, as shots were fired in the background.
Video footage shows Mr. Stratford and his team raising their hands while shouting “journalists” as soldiers are heard saying “stop filming” as gunfire rings out.
There are increasing fears amongst the Ukrainian military and security services about what they described as saboteurs trying to get in cities and compromising military positions.
Ukrainian officials say street fighting is underway in Kyiv against Russian forces, and they are urging residents to seek immediate shelter. 2/27/2022.
