A Gaza, reporters, photographers, and filmmakers are under fire

Freedom of the press: Many international reports document the targeted killing by the Israeli army of journalists, photographers, camera operators, and their families.

Among them is Fatima Hassouna, the young photojournalist who was supposed to present her short documentary at Cannes.

For media workers, the conflict in Gaza has been the deadliest ever recorded.

232 reporters have been killed since the beginning of the war.

Since October 7, 2023, more journalists have died in Gaza than in both world wars combined, including the most recent conflicts put together, with an average of 13 media workers killed per month.

In an unprecedented decision in modern history, Israel has prevented foreign journalists from entering Gaza, leaving the task of documenting the war exclusively to Palestinian journalists residing in the Strip.

The 25-year-old journalist and photographer was murdered last April.

Her short documentary will be presented at the Cannes Festival 2025
