The FPA protests Hamas attempts to actively intervene or direct reporting by visiting international journalists in Gaza over the past month.

(11. August) In several cases, foreign reporters working in Gaza have been harassed, threatened or questioned over stories or information they have reported through their news media or by means of social media.
We are also aware that Hamas is trying to put in place a „vetting“ procedure that would, in effect, allow for the blacklisting of specific journalists. Such a procedure is vehemently opposed by the FPA.
