BBC and news agencies' film calling on Israel to allow foreign journalists into Gaza | BBC News

The BBC and three international news agencies have released a short film calling on Israel to allow foreign journalists into Gaza. The film, launched by the corporation with Agence France-Presse (AFP), the Associated Press (AP) and Reuters, is narrated by veteran BBC journalist David Dimbleby. He said: "International journalists must now be allowed into Gaza to share the burden with the Palestinian reporters there so we can all bring the facts to the world." Foreign journalists have been banned from entering Gaza independently since Israel launched its 2023 offensive following the Hamas 7 October attacks. A small number have been taken into the Strip by Israeli troops under controlled access. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has previously said that to "allow journalists to report safely" in Gaza the military "accompanies them when in the battlefield". The BBC has contacted the Israeli foreign ministry and the Israel Defense Forces for comment.
