Hundreds gathered in Dublin to demonstrate solidarity with Palestinian journalists facing danger and attacks in Gaza.
Hundreds of people took part in a vigil in Dublin to show support for Palestinian journalists. RTÉ education correspondent Emma O’Kelly said: “As NUJ members, we believe it is really important to gather and openly express solidarity and support for journalists working in Gaza , who are under attack and being killed by Israel . Everyone who is killed is a tragedy but the problem with journalism is that if you kill journalists, you are also killing the truth and preventing a story from getting out.
That is why we feel it is incumbent on us to be here and stand up for our sisters and brothers who are working in Gaza and being killed for doing their job. We are also very concerned that Israel is not letting international media in to Gaza. Again, this all contributes to the stifling of the really important story. We need journalists in there, we need journalists to be allowed to report the truth freely, and this is not happening.
