Agence France-Presse (AFP) and France's foreign minister are urgently calling on Israel to allow foreign journalists access to Gaza and to evacuate local reporters who are facing starvation and dire conditions.
AFP warns that its freelance journalists in Gaza are at risk of dying from hunger and exhaustion, as chronic food shortages and lack of clean water make it nearly impossible for them to continue reporting. The Israeli military has been accused of restricting media access and targeting journalists, further silencing coverage of the humanitarian crisis. Humanitarian workers and medical staff are also suffering from severe hunger, with many fainting while trying to help others.
The international community is being urged to intervene to protect journalists and ensure the world can bear witness to the ongoing crisis in Gaza.
