Israel cannot silence Gaza despite killing journalists: Gideon Levy

Gideon Levy, a journalist and columnist for Israeli news outlet Haaretz, has spoken about the Israeli army’s targeted killing of the Al Jazeera team in Gaza, including journalist Anas al-Sharif. Levy called Anas a “courageous journalist who enabled us to see what was going on in Gaza” and said his killing follows a longstanding pattern of Israel targeting journalists whose coverage it is threatened by. “Ever since the killing of Shireen Abu Akleh in Jenin [in the occupied West Bank], you see that journalists are targeted,” Levy said. “It was true about Shireen Abu Akleh, even though the Israeli army denied it at first, as it usually does. It’s true until this very moment. The figures tell us the whole story, and the figures are horrifying.” However, Levy said the killings cannot stop the world from seeing the reality on the ground in Gaza. “Israel cannot shut up Gaza,” he said. “So, even if this is the intention, Gaza will not be less covered now because of those killings. Gaza is becoming such a horrible place that even Netanyahu cannot prevent the world from knowing.” Subscribe to our channel: http://bit.ly/AJSubscribe Follow us on X: https://twitter.com/AJEnglish Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aljazeera Check our website: http://www.aljazeera.com/ Check out our Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/aljazeeraenglish/ Download AJE Mobile App: https://aje.io/AJEMobile #Palestine #Gaza #Israel #GazaWar #GazaJournalists #AnasAlSharif #PressFreedom #AttacksOnJournalists #StopKillingJournalists #JournalismIsNotACrime #AlJazeeraEnglish
