Qatar Center for Press hosts session on challenges of protecting journalists and holding attackers accountable

Qatar ·

Journalists Fadi al-Wahidi and Mahmoud al-Zeibaq spoke at the session. Al-Wahidi said that clearly identifying as a press reporter in Gaza did not protect him from being targeted, while al-Zeibaq said threats reach reporters' families and that moral assassination is used to silence them.

Journalists in Gaza have faced serious dangers since the Israel–Hamas war began in October 2023, and press freedom groups have documented the killing of many reporters there.
