Camerawoman fired for kicking refugees as they fled from police

A Hungarian camerawoman for a nationalist online TV channel has been fired after reporters filmed her kicking and tripping refugees as they fled from police.

The footage went viral within hours. The N1TV channel’s editor, Szabolcs Kisberk, said in a statement employment of the woman, widely identified as Petra Laszlo, had been “terminated with immediate effect”.

He said that she “behaved unacceptably” at a police-supervised collection point for Arabs, Asians, and Africans crossing the border from Serbia near the village of Roszke.
