In an open letter, Reporters Without Borders (RSF) and more than 130 other organizations call for immediate protection for Palestinian journalists and unhindered access to Gaza for international media.
The letter claims that for the previous 20 months, Israel has prohibited international media from entering Gaza. According to RSF, there has never been a such action in the history of modern combat. According to the letter, the Israeli military has killed about 200 journalists.
Israel was charged in the letter with directly attacking press freedom and information access.
It urged Israel to immediately allow international journalists to enter Gaza.
