On World Press Freedom Day, host Catarina Vila Nova spoke to Jonathan Dagher, Head of the Middle East Desk at Reporters Without Borders (RSF). At least 100 journalists have died since the war in Gaza began, 22 during the course of their work. RSF has been monitoring and reporting the crimes being perpetrated against reporters in Gaza which Dagher describes as “systemic” and an attack on journalism as a whole.
Jonathan Dagher recently returned from Doha where he met with Palestinian journalists who escaped from Gaza and told their tales of being targeted by Israel. What Dagher described is a pattern of impunity with journalists facing the unimaginable situation of covering the deaths of their family members, friends and colleagues.
On World Press Freedom Day, we wanted to dedicate this episode of Policy Voices to the journalists in Gaza reporting a war while seeking shelter, water and food.
