The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of the State of Palestine demands that journalists and associations around the world organize and act to protect Palestinian journalists

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of the State of Palestine demands  that journalists and associations around the world  organize and act to protect Palestinian journalists from Israel’s assassination campaigns. 

Israel is responsible for the most sustained massacre of journalists, ever. Israel has deliberately incited against, targeted, and killed over 230 journalists in Gaza. 

Israel’s policy of targeting journalists exposing and documenting its ethnic cleansing of Palestine  is long-standing, methodical, and organized. 

This criminal policy is aimed at killing any witness to its genocide and burying any evidence of its crimes. 

Israel kills journalists with full impunity, out of cruelty and vengeance against the truth. Therefore, the Ministry calls on journalists not to participate or engage with Israel’s lies and propaganda and to reject its campaign of dehumanization and delegitimization of Palestinian journalists. 

No journalist should be  complicit in the incitement and killing of another journalist. 

Palestinian journalists are fulfilling their journalistic duty and honoring their profession with unmatched level of professionalism and devotion to the truth in the most impossible situations. They are heroes who should be honored not vilified.
