1,000 days of genocide: Gaza’s journalists pay devastating price for documenting Israeli atrocities
Carrying a camera or documenting the sworn statement of a survivor in the Gaza Strip during 1,000 days of Israeli genocide has never been an ordinary journalistic task; it became a daily gamble between an airstrike that could target a reporting site, a home collapsing over family members, or a displacement tent turning into an alternative newsroom.
Since Israel launched its genocidal offensive on the Gaza Strip on October 8, 2023, Palestinian journalists have found themselves at the centre of a dispute that has not spared them, as Israeli attacks reached them during fieldwork, destroyed their homes and press institutions, and forced hundreds of them into repeated displacement.
Despite the temporary calm accord that entered into force on October 10 this year, Israel has continued violating it through ongoing attacks and assaults.
According to the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate, Israel killed 265 journalists, including around 27 women, wounded nearly 500 others and detained more than 34 during the 1,000 days of bombardment on Gaza.
The loss, however, is not limited to those killed.
Tahseen al-Astal, deputy head of the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate, informed Anadolu that between 60% and 75% of living journalists in Gaza have lost their homes or been forcibly displaced, forcing them to work from tents, sidewalks or shelters with mobile phones and unstable internet.
