Une soirée de solidarité en soutien à Émilien Urbach, journaliste à l’Humanité, arrêté avec les membres de la Global Sumud Flotilla embarqués pour Gaza, et emprisonné arbitrairement par l’armée israélienne, aura lieu lundi 6 octobre à 18h30 au siège de l’Humanité.

Nous dénonçons l’arraisonnement de la Flotille Global Sumund dans les eaux internationales, mais aussi une violation flagrante des lois et conventions protégeant la sécurité des journalistes dans les zones de conflit et consacrant la liberté de la presse.

Het belang van een vrije pers voor de #democratie is inderdaad fundamenteel en dus een "publiek goed". 🙏

- stable and sustainable funding for public interest journalism, fully recognising journalists’ social and professional rights
- ambitious implementation of the European Media Freedom Act (#EMFA)
- strong and clear messages towards Member States that fail to respect the rule of law.

Sastanak s europskim povjerenikom Michaelom McGrathom. EMFA se mora provoditi u cijelosti, financiranje novinarstva mora uključivati i socijalna i profesionalna prava novinara, nužno je suzbiti SLAPP i političke pritiske na medije, te zloupotrebu špijunskog softvera samo su neki od naših zahtjeva.

#Serbia: Luka Pešić, a student and accredited reporter, was reportedly knocked to the ground, arrested & denied the right to call a lawyer. A portion of his recording was deleted. He was later released. We join our members NUNS/IJAS in calling for an investigation. This is not an isolated incident.
