Freedom of Expression Violations

MADA Center call for releasing the journalist who was kidnapped early in 2006 and considered the abduction of journalists a strange phenomenon to the Palestinian people who respects international laws and conventions.

On the same topic, Reporters without Borders reported on the fact-finding mission to Palestine. Many violations from both Palestinian and Israeli sides were monitored. Sixteen journalists were attacked and three media bases were damaged by Israeli forces. On the other hand, some Palestinian warriors damaged seven media facilities, attacked four media staffers, and kidnapped six foreign journalists in Gaza strip. Reporters without Borders concluded the report with many recommendations to eliminate violations.
