It said Gaza has become the most dangerous place on earth for journalists, with at least 295 media workers verified killed in Israeli attacks since the start of the war.
 
In a post on X, the office called for immediate action beyond mere condemnation, demanding accountability, the protection of journalists and independent media access to the besieged strip.
 
“Gaza is the most dangerous place in the world for journalists,” the office said.
 
Rights groups have repeatedly accused Israel of deliberately striking journalists and their families, as well as media offices, in an effort to silence coverage of the atrocities in Gaza.
 
The Israeli regime has not allowed foreign independent media to enter the strip, controlling all information flow and routinely blocking the work of Palestinian reporters.
 
The UN Human Rights Office urged the international community to move beyond verbal condemnations and take concrete steps to ensure accountability for the killings, protect journalists from further harm, and grant independent media unfettered access to document the crimes unfolding in Gaza.
