Agence France-Presse (AFP) and other media organizations are urgently warning that their journalists in Gaza are at risk of starving to death due to extreme food shortages and deteriorating conditions amid the ongoing conflict.
AFP has called on the Israeli government to allow the immediate evacuation of its freelance reporters and their families, citing severe health issues and exhaustion among staff. Media unions and press freedom advocates stress that without intervention, the last remaining reporters in Gaza may die, leaving the world without independent coverage from the war zone. The crisis has prompted international calls, including from France's foreign minister, for Israel to grant foreign press access to Gaza and ensure the safety of journalists.
The situation highlights the broader humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, where not only civilians but also doctors, aid workers, and journalists are suffering from hunger and lack of basic necessities.
