The IFJ, together with the Brussels branch of NUJ and the Europe branch of PJS, is holding a candlelight vigil in commemoration of all journalists killed in the war in Gaza.
At least 100 journalists and media workers have been killed so far since the conflict started on 7 October, with many others injured or missing. The death toll is unprecedented. Targeting journalists documenting such violences is a war crime and it must stop now.
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has ordered Israel to “take all measures within their power to desist from killing Palestinians in contravention of the Genocide Convention”. The IFJ is joined by NUJ and PJS in condemning the killings and continued attacks on journalists and calls for an immediate investigation into their deaths.
Come and join the vigil to defend press freedom right to report the truth.
