Oren Ziv, an Israeli journalist with +972 Magazine, explained that while most Israeli society and mainstream media celebrated these killings, a small group was protesting to show solidarity with Palestinian journalists working under impossible conditions.
He argued Israel is deliberately silencing Gaza's last remaining journalists ahead of its planned assault on Gaza City, while also blocking international media access for nearly two years.
Ziv criticized the Israeli media for completely aligning with the government's narrative, failing to report on Gaza's starvation crisis or civilian casualties, which leaves the public unaware of the war's brutality. Though small anti-war protests exist - including by refuseniks calling the war "genocide" - they're largely ignored by mainstream outlets.
While polls show disturbing levels of public support for extreme violence against Gazans, Ziv noted most Israelis would accept a ceasefire deal for hostages, suggesting Netanyahu's renewed offensive aims to distract from this growing domestic pressure.
