UN chief Antonio Guterres said the killing of journalists in Gaza, which has taken place at levels that are unprecedented in any conflict, was “unacceptable”, Al Jazeera reports.
“The voices of journalists must be protected and press freedom must be safeguarded,” he said on the sidelines of the UN International Media Seminar on Peace in the Middle East 2024 in Geneva.
He also condemned the refusal by Israeli authorities to enter Gaza.
“The ongoing ban preventing international journalists from Gaza suffocates the truth even further,” he said, reiterating his call to end the war and the occupation of Palestinian territories.
