Yemeni journalist Ahmed Saleh al-Hamzi, head of the state news agency's Baida bureau, was killed in shelling Thursday, local media announced.
Saleh, who headed the state-run Saba news agency's office in the embattled Baida province, was killed covering the fight between pro-government forces and Yemen's Huthi rebels, Saba said.
The news agency said he was killed in a rebel attack.
Aref al-Amri, head of the Baida media office, told AFP Saleh had been killed by shelling early Thursday morning.
Abdullah al-Qadry, a Yemeni photographer and videographer who contributed to AFP, was killed in shelling on the border of Baida province, in central Yemen, in April.
