🚨Israel's relentless journalist killings hit a shocking high! 😱 Amidst the most documented genocide in history, impunity prevails. 🌐💔 🎥Details and Footage: Amid an intensifying humanitarian crisis and unprecedented targeting of journalistic freedoms due to Israel’s genocidal ethnic cleansing war in #Gaza, Fateh’s Reformist Democratic Faction addresses the alarming casualty toll among journalists and media workers: 79 deaths, 16 injuries, 3 missing journalists, and 21 arrests by the genocidal apartheid state of Israel. These developments underscore the broader war crimes against journalists in the context of a significant ethnic cleansing genocide unfolding in Gaza. Dimitri Diliani, member of the Revolutionary Council and Fateh’s Reformist Democratic Faction’s Spokesperson, states, “This tragic sequence of highly intensified Israeli war crimes, spanning in the past three months, reveals a devastating impact on the lives of journalists covering the genocide in Gaza.” Adding, “At the height of the Syrian Civil War, all involved factions, including ISIS, combined, accounted for the horrific death of 30 journalists in a single year. Comparatively, last annual count, 2022, the global count stood at 42 journalists lost in all conflicts worldwide. During the #Russia-Ukrainian war, a notorious hotspot, the toll was at 15 journalists’ who tragically lost their lives while carrying out their duties during the past twelve months.” Diliani emphasizes, "Murdering journalists is a reprehensible terrorist tactic deliberately employed by Israel in an attempt to shroud the genocidal ethnic cleansing war it is committing in Gaza from international scrutiny. This deliberate assault on the fourth estate exposes Israel's blatant targeting of civilian lives, including those of journalists, for the political benefit of its #WarCriminal leaders." As the #Palestinian people mourn the loss of journalistic voices, it is crucial to recognize the magnitude of this assault on press freedom. The numbers speak to a deliberate strategy to suppress information and accountability, casting a dark shadow over Israel's war crimes in the Palestinian occupied territories. Fateh’s Reformist Democratic Faction calls on the international community to condemn these flagrant violations, urging swift action to hold Israel accountable for its genocidal ethnic cleaning war in Gaza. *For media inquiries and further information, please contact:* *Dimitri Diliani* *Revolutionary Council Member,* *Fateh's Reformist Democratic Faction’s Spokesperson* *WhatsApp: +970592608876* *X: @dilianidimitri* *Instagram: @dilianidimitri* *Thread: @dilianidimitri*
