While interviewing Iraqi legislator Homam Hamoodi, a reporter for the U.S.-government- financed Arabic-language station Al Hurra captured footage of the moment of the bomb blast that went off in the cafeteria of the Iraqi parliament building today. At least eight people, three of whom were lawmakers, were killed in the explosion.

An assignment desk editor at Al Hurra headquarters in Virginia tells News Desk that the reporter was injured in the hands but not seriously.
