For its part, the American newspaper “Washington Post” raised the issue of Israel preventing foreign journalists from covering the war in Gaza, and noted that an Israeli journalist answered when asked about the reason that the entry of Western reporters into Gaza “will cause a headache for Israel and affect its propaganda.”
The report pointed out that the world was nevertheless able to follow the horrific events in Gaza “thanks to the brave Gazan journalists who did everything in their power to document the events, but the price for this was high.”
