This report provides a comprehensive account of violations committed by Israeli forces and authorities against Palestinian journalists and media workers during the ongoing genocide in Gaza, as documented by Al Mezan. It covers the period from 7 October 2023 to 30 June 2025. These violations have taken multiple forms, including targeted killings, physical and mental harm, arbitrary detention and torture, incitement to violence, collective punishment, and the wanton destruction of media offices and equipment. The report provides data and documentation of these violations. Specific cases in which Palestinian journalists and media workers were killed, injured, or otherwise harmed, as well as incidents of targeted attacks on press teams and the destruction of media facilities, are included in this report based on sworn testimonies collected by Al Mezan from victims and eyewitnesses.

The report concludes with an analysis of Israel’s violations of its legal obligations towards Palestinian journalists and media workers. Based on the evidence presented in this report, Al Mezan has determined that this campaign of violence, directed by Israeli authorities at the highest political and military levels, is not incidental. It forms part of a deliberate effort to silence the documentation, reporting, and public exposure of Israeli atrocities against Palestinians. This conclusion is further reinforced by the fact that Israeli authorities have imposed a blanket ban on foreign journalists entering Gaza in an apparent attempt to further conceal Israel’s genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.
