Israel-Palestine – deadliest start to a war since 2000 [1]

[]

Date: 2023-11

The total of 34 journalists killed since 7 October in such a small territory is appalling. They include at least 12 reporters killed in connection with their work in the first two weeks, ten of them by Israeli bombardments in the Gaza Strip. Journalists are trapped in a 40-kilometre-long open-air prison, caught in an area that is shelled relentlessly when their offices or they themselves are not being targeted. The figures compiled by Reporters Without Borders (RSF) show the unprecedented scale of the tragedy for journalism in Gaza.

Wars are often especially deadly when they begin, but the first two weeks of this war have been the deadliest of any armed conflict in the world since the start of the 21st century.
