The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has condemned Israel’s killing of five journalists and called on US and international media workers to “stand in solidarity” with their Palestinian colleagues, Al Jazeera reports.
“Israel’s ongoing campaign of targeted assassinations of Palestinian journalists is a war crime, plain and simple,” CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad said in a statement.
“The murder of these Al Jazeera journalists is not an accident or collateral damage — it is part of a consistent, documented policy of silencing media voices and hiding the truth of the genocide being carried out by Israel in Gaza,” Awad said.
