MORE than 50 broadcast journalists have sent an open letter to the embassies of Israel and Egypt calling for “free and unfettered access” to Gaza for foreign media.

The letter, sent by correspondents and presenters from the main broadcasting outlets based in Britain, including Sky News, the BBC, ITV and Channel 4, also appeals for better protection for journalists already reporting in the territory.

Since October 7, more than 20 journalists have been killed every month in Gaza.
