Journalists working for Agence France-Presse (AFP) and other media outlets in Gaza are warning that they are at risk of starving to death as the war and blockade continue to devastate the region.
Severe shortages of food, clean water, and medical supplies have left reporters, along with doctors and humanitarian workers, fainting from hunger and exhaustion while trying to document the crisis. AFP and press freedom advocates are urgently calling on Israel to allow the evacuation of journalists and to grant foreign media access to Gaza. Human rights groups and international officials, including France's foreign minister, have echoed these calls, emphasizing the vital role of journalists in bearing witness to the conflict.
Without immediate intervention, media organizations warn that the last remaining reporters in Gaza may not survive.
