The Palestinian Journalists Syndicate has released a report documenting 108 instances of attacks by Israeli forces and settlers against Palestinian journalists and media workers in the occupied West Bank during the month of July. These violations included detentions, beatings, interrogations, obstruction of coverage, equipment seizure or destruction, and physical assaults. The most common violations were brief detentions and restrictions on reporting, with 58 cases recorded. The committee also documented 11 settler attacks, 12 instances of stun grenades or tear gas being fired at journalists, and four raids on journalists' homes or media offices. The syndicate has demanded accountability for those responsible and called for journalists to be allowed to work without threat or pursuit. This latest toll adds to a record already considered the deadliest in history for journalists, with more than 270 journalists killed since October 2023 amid a campaign of arbitrary press detentions. Al Jazeera has reported that 12 of its own journalists have been killed in Gaza since 2023, making it the media outlet with the highest death toll.
