KARACHI: Hundreds of journalists marched in Karachi on Wednesday to express solidarity with their Middle Eastern colleagues who have been killed in Gaza Strip following Israel’s ruthless bombing of civilian targets since October 7.
At least 40 journalists were among the Palestinian death toll since the war began on October 7 — with more than 10,500 Palestinian deaths in Gaza and the West Bank and 1,400 deaths in Israel.
According to a report published by the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) today, eight journalists have been injured, three are reported missing and nine have been arrested.
“The Israel-Gaza war has become the deadliest four-week period for journalists covering conflict since CPJ began documenting journalist fatalities in 1992,” it added.
