"My colleague Fadi Alwahdi was just targeted by an Israeli sniper and shot in the neck. The goal is to kill us one by one." - Hossam Shabat, Palestinian journalist in Gaza @hossamshabat

I have no words except that Hossam and his colleagues are the bravest people on Earth, and I wish humanity was as courageous and as good as they are. I will never forget their heroism and millions of people around the world will never forgive those perpetrating these war crimes.

The pro-genocide mob at #UCLA specifically targeted student journalists just as Israel targets journalists in Gaza.

latimes.com/california/story/2

Catherine Hamilton, 21, told The Times she recognized one who had previously harassed her & taken pictures of her press badge. The individual instructed the group to encircle the student journalists, before they sprayed them with pepper spray, & chanted Hamilton’s name.

As she tried to break free, she was punched repeatedly in the chest & upper abdomen; another student journalist was pushed to the ground & beaten & kicked for nearly a minute.

Hamilton went to the hospital, when the bruising made it difficult for her to breathe.

This hostage-taking by #russia is unacceptable and countries whose citizens have been kidnapped need to step up the pressure.

RT by @TerryReintke: 6 yrs ago journalist #DaphneCaruanaGalizia was murdered because of her work uncovering corruption in #Malta.

Daphne's murder has left a long lasting stain in Malta's democracy and society & revealed the state of media freedom in the EU.

We keep working to #ProtectJournalists🤍

Commissioner for Human Rights

#Serbia should step up efforts to:
🔹end impunity for #WarCrimes and face the past
🔹#ProtectJournalists, #stopSLAPPs, refrain from restricting the work of #HumanRights defenders and freedom of peaceful assembly
🔹protect women from violence

Commissioner for Human Rights

Impressed by the work of 'Ossigeno per l'informazione'. Their independent monitoring of attacks against journalists in #Italy constitutes an invaluable tool to #ProtectJournalists and should be duplicated across Europe.

Worrying trends, also regarding threats online and assaults against women journalists.

Increasing threats to journalists + strategic lawsuits filed for providing information on public interest issues are just one aspect of deteriorating #PressFreedom

Appalled by the attack on media professionals in the #Kherson region in #Ukraine in blatant disregard of international humanitarian law and #HumanRights law. More must be done to #ProtectJournalists.

My condolences to the family and colleagues of Ukrainian media professional Bohdan Bitik killed in the attack. I wish Italian journalist Corrado Zunino of Repubblica a quick recovery. #NotATarget
