Stop the killing of media workers in Gaza, say NUJ members
Palestinians inspect the damage after an Israeli airstrike early this morning on Yaffa School, in Gaza City, April 23, 2025
MEDIA workers will gather outside the National Union of Journalists (NUJ) conference in Blackpool tomorrow to show support for their Palestinian colleagues and call on Israel to stop its troops targeting journalists.
Union members from across Britain and Ireland will read out the names of the more than 200 media workers killed in Palestine in the past 18 months, highlighting that journalists have been the “eyes and ears of the world as the tragic events there have unfolded daily.”
They are also calling for greater solidarity with workers “still putting their lives on the line every day to bring the world the news” from Gaza.
