A man wearing a police uniform shot two foreign journalists in eastern Afghanistan on Friday, killing one and critically wounding the other, police, a doctor and a local official said.
They were inside a police facility in Tanai district of Khost province, a remote area of Afghanistan's border with Pakistan when the incident took place.
A spokesman for the governor of Khost province suggested to Reuters that the assailant was actually a police officer.
"Naqibullah, a policeman in Tani district of Khost, opened fire on two foreign journalists. One was killed and one was wounded," Mobariz Zadran told the agency.
The shooting comes ahead of presidential elections on Saturday and a spike in violence against journalists in the country.
Last month, a prominent Afghan journalist with the Agence France-Presse news agency was killed alongside eight other people when Taliban gunmen opened fire inside a heavily fortified luxury hotel in the center of Kabul.
