#IFJ / Record number of Palestinian journalists’ arbitrarily arrested by Israel

#Israel has significantly increased arrests and detentions of Palestinian journalists since the start of the war in #Gaza in October 2023. As of May 29, 2024, Israel had arrested a record 76 Palestinian journalists since the war began, according to the article.

20 Palestinian journalists are currently being held under administrative detention, which allows indefinite detention without charges or trial based on secret evidence. Amongst them photojournalist Bilal Al Tawil, and prominent journalist Rula Hassanein, whose home was raided.

Palestinian journalist unions accuse Israel of trying to intimidate journalists and control the narrative by arresting those covering the Israeli occupation.

The IFJ condemns Israel's "over-reaching campaign to harass and prosecute Palestinian journalists" and vows to advocate for journalist safety. At least 102 Palestinian journalists and media workers have been killed since the Gaza war began, according to IFJ data.

www.ifj.orgPalestine: Record number of Palestinian journalists’ arbitrarily arrested by Israel / IFJ[UPDATE 29.05.2024] Seventy-six Palestinian journalists and media workers have been arrested by Israel’s security forces in the occupied West Bank and Gaza since the Hamas-led attack in southern Israel on 7 October, 2023. To date, 50 of them are still in prison, including 20 who have been subject to administrative detention, according to the Palestinian Journalists’ Syndicate (PJS). The International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) is alarmed by the record number of journalists arbitrarily arrested as part of Israel’s broader campaign to intimidate and deter them from reporting on the military occupation. The IFJ calls on Israel to halt its persecution of Palestinian journalists, and immediately and unconditionally release them all.
