Friday marks seven years since TOLOnews journalist Samim Faramarz and cameraman Ramiz Ahmadi were killed in a bombing in Kabul while covering a previous explosion.
The two were reporting from the scene of an earlier blast at the Maiwand wrestling club in the Dasht-e-Barchi neighborhood of western Kabul on the evening of Sept 5, 2018 when a second explosion struck, killing them.
Six other journalists were wounded in the attack.
Faramarz graduated from Afghan-Turk High School in 2009 and later completed his higher education in Kazakhstan.
Ahmadi had worked as a cameraman at TOLOnews for five years and was widely respected for his commitment to frontline reporting.
Their deaths remain a powerful reminder of the dangers journalists face while reporting in conflict zones.
Daesh had claimed responsibility for the attack.
