Especially now that reliable information is life saving, it is even more detrimental that the junta is disseminating mis- and #disinformation. We need reliable information, we need #journalists to be able to do their work. 2/2

The violence in Gaza As Israel continues to bomb Gaza relentlessly, we are losing more and more sight of what is actually happening. Never before have so many journalists been killed: at least 137* since 7 October 2023. In this file you will find updates on the situation for journalists in Gaza, and what we are doing to support journalists and access to information. *cpj.org

🚨 We call on the #Dutch government to put policy into practice, if freedom of expression is a true priority, hold #Israel to account for the violence against #journalists in #Gaza.

It leaves people in conflict zones deprived of life saving information, puts the protection of journalists on hold, and gives way to disinformation. This while safeguarding access to reliable information is more important than ever.

Especially in countries with authoritarian regimes and fragile information systems, independent media are the only ones that still provide citizens with facts. ➡️ Read more: ow.ly/y2BF50V1SoJ
