of solidarity for the journalists killed in Gaza since 2023
Here, demonstrators wearing fake flak jackets, you can see them behind me
showing pictures of those journalists killed. Moments ago, they were lying on the ground
Again, of course, a symbolic action and moments. Some of the journalists here in the past were able to go into Gaza
to report on various Israeli operations. They can no longer do so
The Israeli army preventing any journalists from going into the territory. France 24 had a handful of journalists who were able to go in
escorted by the Israeli army, taken to carefully selected locations for 20 minutes or so and unable to talk to Palestinian civilians there
So clearly a situation of media blackout, impossible to report freely from inside Gaza on the war that's currently going on
There's recently been a report released by the Watson Institute for Public and International Affairs
It belongs to a Brown University in the US. And it shows that when you take the number of journalists killed in the American Civil War, Yugoslavia, Vietnam, World War I and World War II
when you take all of those wars and the number of journalists killed put together
it doesn't amount to the number of journalists killed in Gaza since 2023
three. We're talking over 170 journalists killed
