International journalists covering the Israel-Hamas war are increasingly frustrated by the ban on entering Gaza, leaving them unable to provide comprehensive on-the-ground coverage of the impact of the conflict inside the territory.


The Erez crossing from Israel into Gaza, controlled by the Israeli military, has been closed since 7 October when Hamas attacked the buildings and infrastructure, and killed or kidnapped a number of soldiers manning the border.

The Rafah crossing, from Egypt into Gaza at the southern end of the territory, which is controlled by the Egyptian military, has also been closed to journalists since the beginning of the war.

The Foreign Press Association (FPA), an independent Israeli organisation that represents members of the international media, has taken the first steps in a “legal procedure” for access into Gaza for international journalists after an initial request to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and the Israeli government press office was ignored.

The international media has been relying on Palestinian journalists and media workers in Gaza, contact with Palestinian civilians, aid agency staff and medical workers, as well as social media reports, which need painstaking verification. Since the start of the war, at least 63 journalists and media workers in Gaza have been killed, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists.

Some international journalists had embedded with the IDF inside Gaza since 7 October. However, the IDF forbade contact with Palestinians on the ground and has insisted that reports be submitted for review before publication or broadcast.
