Tragedy in #Gaza: Palestinian journalist and documentarian Saleh Aljafarawi was killed while documenting the horrors of war. His voice gave face and dignity to those too often reduced to numbers. Freedom of information must never be negotiable

"¿Hasta cuándo vamos a ser objetivos militares?", El ejército de Israel ha matado a 200 informadores en Gazas. Los reporteros palestinos son los únicos testigos que documentan la masacre. Hablamos con los que resisten y arriesgan su vida cada día
Objetivo: matar al periodista | Especial
El ejército de Israel ha matado a dos centenares de informadores en Gaza en los últimos dos años, mientras el Gobierno de Netanyahu prohíbe la entrada de la prensa internacional a la Franja. Es una situación inédita en los conflictos bélicos. Los reporteros palestinos son los ojos y oídos del mundo, los únicos testigos que documentan una masacre que ha causado ya más de 65.000 muertos. A las dificultades diarias que los periodistas gazatíes deben sortear para poder informar se suma el miedo por sentirse un constante objetivo militar. Hablamos con reporteros que resisten y arriesgan su vida cada día. Y con las organizaciones que defienden su gran labor y denuncian los asesinatos. Así vive y muere la prensa en Gaza
