ARTICLE 19 condemns the all-out assault on freedom of expression during the conflict in Israel and Occupied Palestinian Territories. It perpetuates violence and limits #AccessToInfo.

We call for an urgent ceasefire and respect for free speech.

As of 12 November, over 12,200 lives have been lost in the Palestinian Occupied Territories and Israel. Parties must uphold international law. Free expression must be at the centre of the response.

Cold-blooded murder of Jan Kuciak was also a cold slap across the face of modern Europe. That public watchdogs - the beloved members of a profession sometimes more reviled than admired - could be halted simply by a brutal act of violence portends further breakdown of European values.
