AFP journalists warn their ‘last reporters will die’ working in current Gaza conditions

GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, JUL 23 – AFP warns its Gaza freelance journalists face starvation amid blockade as health officials report over 100 malnutrition deaths since conflict escalation, with aid blocked since March 2025.

  • Agence France-Presse journalists, including freelancers in Gaza, warn they risk dying of starvation amid untenable conditions in 2024.
  • This situation stems from a strict blockade, ongoing Israeli military operations, and the near absence of food or affordable supplies.
  • In early 2024, AFP pulled out its international staff from Gaza, leaving behind a small team composed of a freelance reporter, several photographers, and a number of video journalists to continue covering the region.
  • AFP urged Israeli authorities to authorize immediate evacuation of these freelancers and their families, stating, "Their strength is leaving them."
  • Without urgent intervention, AFP warns the last Gaza reporters will die, underscoring the critical need for press protection and humanitarian aid.
