The Government Media Office strongly condemns, in the harshest terms, the systematic targeting, killing, and assassination of Palestinian journalists by the Israeli occupation. We call on the International Federation of Journalists, the Arab Journalists Union, and all journalistic bodies in all countries of the world to denounce these systematic crimes against Palestinian journalists and media professionals in the Gaza Strip.
We hold the Israeli occupation, the U.S. administration, and countries participating in the crime of genocide — such as the United Kingdom, Germany, and France — fully responsible for committing these heinous and barbaric crimes.
We call on the international community, international organizations, and all bodies concerned with journalism and media work worldwide to condemn the occupation’s crimes, to deter it, and to prosecute it in international courts for its ongoing crimes, and to bring its criminals to justice. We further call on them to exert serious and effective pressure to stop the crime of genocide, protect journalists and media workers in the Gaza Strip, and end the crime of killing and assassinating them.
We ask Allah Almighty to grant all our martyred journalist colleagues mercy, acceptance, and Paradise, and to grant their families and the Palestinian journalistic community patience and solace. We also wish a speedy recovery to all wounded journalists.
