Agence France-Presse (AFP) and other organizations are urgently warning that their journalists in Gaza are facing extreme hunger and risk of death due to ongoing food shortages and Israel's restrictions on aid and media access. France's foreign minister and press freedom advocates are calling on Israel to allow foreign journalists into Gaza and to evacuate local reporters who are in danger. The blockade has left journalists, humanitarian workers, and medical staff starving and exhausted, severely hampering their ability to report on the conflict and humanitarian crisis. AFP says this is an unprecedented situation in its history, with staff at risk not from violence, but from starvation. The international community is being urged to intervene to protect journalists and ensure the world can bear witness to events in Gaza.
