Italian Journalists Denounce Zionist Enemy's Crimes Against Journalists in Gaza
Rome - Saba: Dozens of Italian journalists and media professionals participated in a vigil on Sunday evening in Rome's Porta San Giovanni Square, condemning the crimes committed by the Zionist enemy against Palestinian journalists. The protesters carried pictures of the martyred journalists who were killed during the Israeli genocide and demanded respect for international law, concrete initiatives to halt the Israeli genocide in Gaza, an immediate withdrawal from the Strip, and the entry of UN and international aid into Gaza, according to the Palestinian News Agency (WAFA). Participants issued a statement during the event, affirming that "what is happening in Gaza before our eyes is a genocide, in which Israel has killed 226 journalists—an unprecedented death toll in history, surpassing even major conflicts of the 20th century." They added, "Thanks to these colleagues, the world has learned what has happened and continues to happen in Gaza, especially since Israel bars international media from entering the Strip and commits deadly attacks against Palestinian journalists and their families." The protesters rejected the double standards in media coverage when it comes to Israel's victims and called on Italian and European media to freely use the term "genocide" to describe the events in Gaza. They urged Italian news agencies and official institutions to take a firm stance, stating that silence is no longer acceptable, and demanded greater mobilization among Italian journalists. Additionally, they called on "Italy and the European Union—bound by specific international obligations—to take action to prevent and halt the ongoing genocide." They also demanded that "Israel respect press freedom and immediately allow international media into Gaza and the occupied territories, as denying this constitutes an arbitrary violation of the right to information and fundamental democratic principles."

Protesters held banners with slogans such as: - "Iran will not become Gaza" - "America must leave the region" - "Thank you, valiant Revolutionary Guards" They also chanted anti-U.S. and anti-Israel slogans, including: - "Death to America, Death to Israel" - "No negotiation, no surrender, only confrontation with America" - "We are not like the people of Kufa to leave Ali alone" - "We came to the square to humiliate the enemy" - "We are the soldiers of the Imam, ready for jihad" Participants expressed support for Iran's response to recent attacks on nuclear facilities, calling for a "strong and decisive retaliation" against the "blatant American-Israeli aggression on the country's sovereignty." Demonstrators also demanded Iran's withdrawal from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), urging the government to take serious steps, including closing the Strait of Hormuz and targeting U.S. military bases near Iran in retaliation for the attack. Several student movement leaders delivered speeches during the rally, analyzing the regional situation and possible response scenarios by the Islamic Republic. The protest follows a U.S.-coordinated military strike with the Zionist entity earlier today, targeting sensitive Iranian nuclear facilities. While the U.S. president claimed the attack "destroyed Iran's nuclear infrastructure," Iranian authorities confirmed that damages were "limited and under control." Whatsapp Telegram Email Print
