Israel targets journalists to create Gaza ‘blackout,’ says Reporters Without Borders
Louise Bichet, project director at Reporters Without Borders, spoke to Al Jazeera from Paris after an Israeli strike on Gaza’s Nasser Hospital killed at least 20 people, including five journalists.She expressed outrage, describing it as another targeted killing within a broader Israeli strategy to silence reporting from Gaza, noting more than 200 journalists have been killed in nearly two years. Bichet stressed that international law, including UN resolution 2222, obliges warring parties to protect journalists, not target them.
Reporters Without Borders has three key demands: an end to the killings, urgent evacuation of wounded journalists, and access for international media to Gaza.
She criticised the muted global response, urging the media community to be louder and more forceful in condemning Israel’s actions.
Bichet recalled that the killing of Al Jazeera’s Anas al-Sharif two weeks earlier was part of a documented tactic of targeting Palestinian journalists under false accusations.
She emphasised that this reflects a deliberate strategy to impose an information blackout in Gaza. Bichet also conveyed the fear among journalists inside Gaza, quoting colleagues who say none of them know if they will survive.
She concluded by calling for an emergency UN Security Council meeting to specifically address Israel’s targeting of journalists.
