Nasser Kanaani, the spokesman for Iran's Foreign Ministry, reported that 161 journalists have been martyred in Gaza over the past ten months.

In a powerful statement on X, he emphasized that Palestinian journalists are narrating the depth of atrocities and war crimes committed by the Israeli regime against the oppressed and resilient people of Palestine.

Kanaani called on free media and justice-seeking journalists around the globe to amplify the voices of the martyred journalists in Gaza. He underscored journalists' critical role in documenting the ongoing conflict and the humanitarian crisis unfolding in the region.

The plight of journalists in Gaza has been dire, with many facing life-threatening conditions while covering the conflict. The Israeli military has been accused of targeting media outlets and journalists, further complicating the already perilous situation for those reporting from the ground.

Kanaani's post on X comes amid heightened tensions in the region, as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict continues to escalate.

The Islamic Republic remains a vocal supporter of the Palestinian cause and has consistently condemned Israeli actions in Gaza.

As the international community grapples with the complexities of the conflict, Kanaani's call for solidarity with the martyred journalists serves as a reminder of the importance of press freedom and the need for accountability in the face of violence.
