PNN – Palestinian writer and journalist Daoud Katb considered the silence of the international media against the massacre of Palestinian journalists by the Zionist regime to be dangerous for everyone.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network, Al Jazeera quoted this Palestinian journalist and wrote: The Zionist regime has martyred several reporters and journalists in its attacks on the Gaza Strip in recent months.
The regime admitted in a statement last week that it killed five Palestinian journalists by attacking a press vehicle in the Nusirat refugee camp.
This statement tried to justify this war crime by claiming that these five journalists were operatives who had introduced themselves as members of the media.
Western media also helped the Zionist regime to justify this crime by publishing and broadcasting this statement.
These attacks and barbaric actions of the Zionist regime army are taking place while regardless of what reports the journalists publish; they should all be protected under international humanitarian laws.

The Israeli army has killed many Palestinian journalists in the last 15 months, completely disregarding these international laws.
Statistics show that since October 7, 2023, more than 200 members of the media have been massacred in the Gaza Strip.
Not only does Tel Aviv not recognize any of the Palestinian media activists as protected persons under international law, it also prohibits foreign journalists from entering Gaza.
While the Zionist regime has been continuing this crime for 15 months, no international media has reacted or protested against these actions.
The Israeli army is also trying to be the main narrator of this war by issuing various statements and reports, and by justifying these attacks, it shows it as a kind of defensive war within the framework of international laws.
One of the main reasons for the massacre of journalists by the Zionist regime is that this regime has never been tried and held accountable for these actions.
At the end of his report, Dawood Kateb emphasized that the time has come for the international media community to stop making excuses and call and condemn the actions of the Zionist regime as “war crimes” based on reality.
He added: Journalists around the world should stand by their Palestinian colleagues and demand answers from those who massacred them. They should also ask their government and country to impose heavy sanctions against this regime.
