Israeli Inaction in Journalist's Killing Revealed in Report.

A new report by the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) has found a pattern of Israeli inaction in the killings of journalists covering Israel and the West Bank over the past two decades. The report focused on the cases of 20 reporters whose deaths it attributed to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) since 2001 and found that no one has been charged or held accountable in any of them. Even if the killings were not intentional, the military still has an obligation to safeguard reporters, who are considered civilians and noncombatants under international law. The lack of transparency in investigations and failure to hold anyone responsible has fed international skepticism about Israel's commitment to protecting journalists.
