Gaza (Quds News Network)- AFP has issued a grave warning: its reporters in Gaza may soon die of hunger, a tragedy the agency has never faced in its 80-year history. “For the first time, we fear losing colleagues to starvation,” the agency’s Journalists’ Society (SDJ) said on Sunday. “We have seen war wounds, imprisonment, and death in the field, but never this.” The AFP team in Gaza consists of nine local reporters and photographers. They have endured months of siege, displacement, and now famine. They continue working without food, clean water, or electricity, moving between camps on foot or by donkey cart, as Israeli airstrikes target moving vehicles. One of them, Bashar, who has worked with AFP since 2010, wrote on Facebook: “I no longer have the strength to work. My body is thin. My brother collapsed from hunger.” Although AFP pays their salaries, the reporters cannot buy anything. Shops are empty. Prices are astronomical. The banking system has collapsed. Even accessing cash comes with a 40% commission. The warning comes as the death toll from Israel’s starvation siege continues to rise. According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, 99 people were killed and over 650 injured in the past 24 hours while trying to reach aid trucks. That brings the total number of “Martyrs of Bread” who reached hospitals to 1,021 dead and more than 6,511 wounded. Dozens now die each day from hunger, with no intervention in sight. AFP is urging immediate action to save lives, including those of its journalists, who remain among the last eyes on the ground documenting Israel’s Gaza genocide.
