Israel committed 479 violations against Palestinian journalists in 2022
According to the report Israeli army and security forces are responsible for at least 479 violations of media and journalists’ rights in Palestine during the first half of the 2022 including the assassination of Al Jazeera correspondent Shireen Abu Akleh.
 
The PSJ report has documented 175 detention cases of journalists and prevention of media coverage of incidents in the occupied lands.
 
It has also documented 80 cases of physical assault by the Israeli occupation forces and 65 cases of attacks perpetrated by Israeli settlers.
 
"The increase in the attacks by Israeli settlers against Palestinian journalists under the protection of the army was remarkable and growing" highlighted the report.
 
the PJS has urged in its statement, "Journalistic work in Palestine is under attack. We renew our call on relevant international and human rights organizations to take decisive actions to stop the targeting of journalists by the occupation forces."
 
Commenting on the PJS's report, the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) responded that it: "Has repeatedly condemned the deliberate targeting of journalists and media facilities by Israel and submitted a formal complaint to the ICC in early April 2022."
