FREEDOM OF THE PRESS
Journalist Nezahat Doğan recently applied to the Ministry of Justice to visit Abdullah Öcalan in Imrali Prison. She said that journalists want to go there to find answers to the pressing questions on everyone’s mind: ‘What is happening?’
The Turkish state targeted and killed journalist Egîd Roj with a drone. The journalist was covering the news at the Tishrin Dam, where the people continued their resistance vigil.
A deep-rooted fear of the truth being revealed lies at the core of military attacks, massacres, and cover-up crimes. That is why they target and kill journalists.
The Turkish state has disregarded international laws and regulations protecting journalists' rights, targeting South Kurdistan and Rojava in its attacks. Since 2019, Turkey has killed 14 journalists and wounded 7 others in these regions.
