Eleven months into the war, it’s possible to say that the circumstances Israel used to justify barring the media from Gaza are no longer valid, and that it must allow the entry of foreign journalists so they can cover the war properly.
As a result of Israel’s control of the border crossings, which has become even tighter since the capture of Rafah, no foreign journalist can set foot in the Strip without the state’s approval. The blanket ban on entry to foreign journalists without an IDF Spokesperson’s Unit escort greatly damages the ability to report independently as well as the right of the public in Israel and around the world to know what is happening in Gaza.
They don’t allow any foreign journalists to cover IDF from Israel. Only local journalist in Gaza or West Bank do the reporting and get shot dead.
