    #AbuAkleh was murdered while covering an (…) #IDF operation in the #WestBank town of Jenin on May 11, 2022, despite wearing a clearly marked press vest. Her killing is part of a wider pattern of journalist deaths by Israeli military fire in which no one has been held accountable.

    #cpj numbers are lower than #wikipedia's because they don't count "Hamas-affiliated" media outlets (whose employees can be called "combatants" by #hasbara shills with impunity).
    As part of my #EoB installation, I've hung 279 #MemorialNameTags for #reporters killed in #Gaza (since they were printed at the beginning of the #CeaseFire we're allegedly in now, the last dozen tags were hand written).

    5 more have been killed since.

    „The journalist, A. Shihab-Eldin (…) was arrested (…) while visiting Kuwait. His #detention, which was condemned by international rights groups, highlighted restrictions on media coverage in the Persian Gulf (…). The Committee to Protect Journalists described those charges as “vague & overly broad accusations that are routinely used to silence independent journalists.”

  8. The Committee to Protect Journalists (#CPJ) is calling for an urgent international investigation into the killing of Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil, alleging that #Israel's failure to allow timely medical access may constitute a war crime and highlighting a pattern of targeted attacks and obstruction of rescue efforts. Regional Director Sara Qudah stated that a culture of impunity in #Gaza is fueling a similar pattern in #Lebanon and urged the international community to hold Israel accountable.

  9. The First Casualty

    They told you Iran's missiles were being swatted from the sky. They told you the Iron Dome was holding, the Patriot batteries were working, US and Israeli air power was surgical and winning. They told you this on the ABC. They told you this on Sky. They were telling you nonsense. MIT Professor Ted Postol — the man who proved the Patriot missile failed in the Gulf War while presidents were claiming a 97 percent success rate — has now established that current intercept rates against Iranian missiles run at a few percent at most. The systems are depleting. The decoys are multiplying. The official story is, in his own carefully chosen word, a fraud. The first casualty of war is truth. But the deeper insight, the one Phillip Knightley identified fifty years ago, is that the lies are not random. They serve purposes. And right now, they are serving purposes that Australians have every right to examine.

    „Of the 129 journalists killed around the world in 2025, the Israeli military was responsible for 86, about two-thirds of the deaths, the #CPJ found. The #deathtoll is the highest since the New York-based press freedom group started tracking the killing of journalists in 1992.“

    >> More journalists and media workers were killed in 2025 than in any other year since the Committee to Protect Journalists (#CPJ) began collecting data more than three decades ago.

    >> Israel was responsible for two-thirds of all press killings in both 2025 and 2024.

    >> The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has committed more targeted killings of journalists than any other government’s military since CPJ began documentation in 1992.

    >> Very few transparent investigations have been held into the cases of targeted killings … and no one has been held accountable in any of these cases…

  17. ‘A record 129 journalists and media workers were killed in the course of their work in 2025, and two-thirds of them were killed by #Israel the Committee to Protect Journalists (#CPJ) has said.

    It was the second straight year that killings set a record and the second straight year that Israel was responsible for two-thirds of them’

    The wholesale slaughter of the #Press in #Gaza is unprecedented. Israel is deliberately silencing news on the #genocide it perpetrated.

  18. […] "We returned from hell."

    Imad Ifranji, Palestinian journalist detained in #SdeTeiman.

    The Committee to Protect Journalists (#CPJ) report reveals systematic torture, sexual violence, and abuse against 58 out of 59 Palestinian journalists detained in Israeli prisons since October 7, 2023.

    cpj.org/special-reports/we-ret

    Note on terminology: the report’s terminology reflects international law and human rights standards, while mainstream/pro-Israel media often: normalizes abuses through neutral language, centers Israeli denials without scrutinizing evidence (e.g., #IDF statements treated as fact) and almost always erases #Palestinian testimonies by prioritizing "both sides" framing in asymmetrical power dynamics.

Il Comitato per la Protezione dei Giornalisti (Cpj) ha pubblicato un rapporto in cui si afferma che i giornalisti palestinesi detenuti nelle carceri israeliane hanno subito “violenza sistematica". Le interviste condotte dall'organizzazione su 59 persone detenute tra ottobre 2023 e gennaio di quest'anno. "Tutti gli intervistati, tranne uno, hanno riferito di aver subito tortura, abusi o altre forme di violenza", si legge.

  26. #CPJ Report: Israel Imprisons 29 Palestinian Journalists Under Brutal Conditions

    CPJ states this is “the deadliest and most deliberate effort to kill and silence journalists” they’ve ever documented, serving to “silence those who document and bear witness to what human rights groups and UN experts agree is a genocide.”

    Key findings:

    • 29 journalists imprisoned (all Palestinian except 1)

    • 27 held in administrative detention - no charges, no trial

    • Israel ranks 2nd globally for torture claims against imprisoned journalists (38 reports, 24 alleging beatings/torture)

    Israel has detained 202+ Palestinian journalists since Oct 2023, systematically preventing documentation of its military assault on #Gaza.

    From the testimony of Palestinian journalist Farah Abu Ayash, detained since August 2024:

    ∙ Attacked by military dogs during arrest
    ∙ Tied to leaking water pipe overnight
    ∙ 55 days solitary confinement at Al-Moskobiya
    ∙ Systematic beatings, medical neglect, verbal abuse
    ∙ Cell infested with vermin at Ayalon prison
    ∙ Family denied contact; detention extended twice without charge

    Israel killed more journalists in 2025 than any other country, according to a recent report by Reporters Without Borders (RSF).

    The single deadliest attack in Gaza was a “double-tap” strike on a hospital in the south of the enclave on August 25, in which five journalists were killed, including Al Jazeera photographer Mohammad Salama.

  28. Israeli attacks on journalists

    According to the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), Israel has killed at least 246 journalists and media workers since the start of the war in October 2023.
    Of that, 59 were directly targeted and killed by Israeli forces in what CPJ describes as murders. Most of the victims were Palestinian journalists and media workers reporting in the Gaza Strip, the group says.

  29. Weltweiter Aufruf: Journalisten in Gaza brauchen dringend Schutz

    Zusammen mit über 250 Medienorganisationen fordert +972 internationale Akteure auf, palästinensische #Journalisten zu verteidigen und #Israel dazu zu bringen, #Gaza für die ausländische #Presse zu öffnen. Heute schließt sich das +972 Magazine über 250 #Medienorganisationen in einem weltweiten Aufruf an, der den Schutz palästinensischer Journalisten in Gaza fordert. Der von Reporter ohne Grenzen (#RSF) und dem Komitee zum Schutz von Journalisten (#CPJ) ins Leben gerufene Appell fordert ein Ende der #Straffreiheit, die es der israelischen #Armee ermöglicht hat, seit dem 7. Oktober rund 200 Journalisten zu töten, die Aufhebung der israelischen #Blockade, die ausländische Reporter daran hindert, in den #Gazastreifen einzureisen, und sichere Durchreise für Journalisten, die den Gazastreifen verlassen wollen, insbesondere für diejenigen, die medizinische Versorgung benötigen.

    Seit Beginn der Angriffe hat Israel ausländischen Journalisten die Einreise nach Gaza verboten. Trotzdem dokumentieren unsere Kollegen vor Ort weiterhin die #Bombardierungen Israels unter ständiger Gefahr für #Leib und #Leben, während sie gleichzeitig #Hunger, #Zwangsumsiedlungen und einen künstlich herbeigeführten Zusammenbruch der #Grundversorgung und medizinischen #Versorgung erdulden müssen. Ohne sie würde die Welt kaum erfahren, was in dem belagerten und isolierten Gebiet passiert. Das #CPJ hat den Krieg gegen den Gazastreifen als „die tödlichste und gezielte Aktion zur Tötung und zum Schweigenbringen von Journalisten“ in der Geschichte der Organisation bezeichnet und die Zahl der Getöteten auf 189 geschätzt. Das Gaza Media Center und die Palästinensische #Journalistengewerkschaft schätzen die Zahl auf 246, während das UN-Menschenrechtsbüro (#OHCHR) von 247 ausgeht. Israels gezielte Angriffe auf Journalisten sind kein Zufall, sondern Teil eines bewussten Versuchs, die Berichterstattung über #Gräueltaten gegen #Zivilisten in Gaza zu unterbinden. Eine jüngste Untersuchung von +972 und Local Call ergab, dass Israel eine spezielle #Militäreinheit namens „Legitimization Cell“ eingerichtet hat, deren Aufgabe es ist, palästinensische Journalisten als #Hamas-Kämpfer zu diffamieren, um der weltweiten Empörung über ihre #Tötung entgegenzuwirken.

    „Die Medienblockade gegen Gaza in Verbindung mit der Ermordung von fast 200 Journalisten durch die israelische Armee ermöglicht die vollständige Zerstörung und Auslöschung des blockierten Gebiets”, sagte Thibaut #Bruttin, Generaldirektor von #RSF. „Die israelischen Behörden verbieten ausländischen Journalisten die Einreise und üben rücksichtslos ihre Kontrolle über Informationen aus. Dies ist ein systematischer Versuch, die #Fakten zu verschleiern, die Wahrheit zu unterdrücken und die palästinensische Presse und Bevölkerung zu isolieren.

    Wir fordern #Regierungen, internationale #Institutionen und #Staatschefs auf, ihr stillschweigendes Einverständnis zu beenden, die sofortige Öffnung des Gazastreifens für ausländische #Medien durchzusetzen und einen Grundsatz zu wahren, der häufig mit Füßen getreten wird: Nach dem humanitären #Völkerrecht ist die Tötung eines Journalisten ein #Kriegsverbrechen. Dieser Grundsatz wurde viel zu oft verletzt und muss jetzt durchgesetzt werden.“ Journalisten sind Zivilisten, und ihr Schutz ist eine internationale Verpflichtung.

    #Journalismus ist unerlässlich, um aufzudecken, was in Gaza geschieht, und die Verantwortlichen zur Rechenschaft zu ziehen. Wir fordern daher die internationale Gemeinschaft auf, ihrer Pflicht zum Schutz palästinensischer Journalisten nachzukommen, ausländischen Reportern uneingeschränkten Zugang zu gewähren und ihre Sicherheit zu garantieren.

    Wir vom +972 Magazine / @972mag stehen unseren Kollegen in Gaza zur Seite und fordern ihren Schutz. Quelle: Global appeal: Gaza’s journalists need urgent protection
