French News Agency Agence France-Presse (AFP) released a joint statement alongside other prominent news outlets to their X account Thursday stating that they are “desperately concerned” for their journalists in Gaza, claiming that they are facing the threat of starvation, and urged Israeli authorities to allow journalists in and out of the war-torn region.
“We are desperately concerned for our journalists in Gaza, who are increasingly unable to feed themselves and their families,” began the joint statement from AFP, The Associated Press, BBC World and Reuters. “For many months, these independent journalists have been the world’s eyes and ears on the ground in Gaza. They are now facing the same dire circumstances as those they are covering.”
The statement continued, noting that while journalists “endure many deprivations and hardships in warzones,” the outlets are “deeply alarmed that the threat of starvation is now one of them.”
The news outlets called on Israeli authorities to “allow journalists in and out of Gaza,” highlighting that it is essential that “adequate food supplies” reach the people there.
