Watching an interview with Italian journalist Guiliana Sgrena on BBC. I'm going to translate the main points:
"
- We were travelling on one of the safest roads around the airport.
- The American command was informed about us.
- There were no warning shots. The driver, an Italian agent, will say the same thing.
- I was terrified when I saw Nicola Calipari dead - he covered me and protected me - he died to save me. I cannot forget him.
- I don't know if I was the target, but we were shot at nevertheless.
- The Americans could have shot at the wheels or the engine of the vehicle - instead, they fired on the level of the people inside the car.
- When Iraq was not occupied, there weren't any kidnappings - now there's no law, this is not a normal country.
