Agence France-Presse (AFP) has issued urgent appeals for the evacuation of its freelance journalists trapped in Gaza, warning that they are at risk of starvation due to severe food shortages caused by the ongoing Israeli blockade.
The journalists, who remain among the last international media voices in the territory, report collapsing from hunger and exhaustion while trying to document the conflict. AFP and French officials have called on Israel to allow both the evacuation of media workers and greater press access to Gaza. The crisis highlights not only the dangers faced by journalists but also the broader humanitarian catastrophe affecting all civilians and aid workers in Gaza.
The situation has sparked international concern over press freedom and the safety of those bearing witness to the war.
