Journalists working for Agence France-Presse (AFP) and other media outlets in Gaza are warning that they are at risk of starving to death due to extreme food shortages caused by the ongoing Israeli blockade.
The AFP and its journalists' union have issued urgent appeals for intervention, stating that their reporters are suffering from severe malnutrition, exhaustion, and deteriorating health, making it nearly impossible to continue covering the conflict. Calls have been made for Israel to allow the evacuation of journalists and for greater international action to protect media workers and ensure humanitarian aid reaches the population. The crisis highlights the broader humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, where not only journalists but also medical and aid workers are struggling to survive.
International organizations and foreign governments, including France, are urging Israel to grant access to foreign press and facilitate relief efforts.
