Agence France-Presse (AFP) has urgently called on Israel to allow the evacuation of its freelance journalists trapped in Gaza, warning that they are at risk of starvation and death due to severe food shortages.
The journalists, who remain among the last international media voices in the war-torn enclave, report being unable to work effectively as hunger and exhaustion take their toll. France's foreign minister and press freedom advocates are pressuring Israel to grant access and safe passage for journalists and humanitarian workers. The crisis highlights the broader humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, where aid is blocked and even those documenting the conflict are now victims.
AFP's plea underscores the dangers faced by reporters and the critical need for international intervention to protect press freedom and human life.
