Sanaa announced today, Sunday, the final list of journalists and media professionals who were martyred in the Israeli airstrikes that targeted the offices of 26 September and Al-Yemen newspapers in the capital on Wednesday evening.
In an official statement, the Government of Change and Development mourned a group of what it called “martyrs of the free word,” emphasizing that the targeting of journalists while carrying out their noble mission of conveying the truth constitutes a war crime and a blatant violation of all international laws and conventions.
The statement stressed that the targeting of Yemeni media institutions is part of a deliberate policy pursued by the Israeli occupation, which has previously extended to journalists in Palestine, Lebanon, and Iran, with the aim of suppressing the truth and concealing the enemy’s crimes from the global public.
Despite the horror of these crimes, the government affirmed that they will not weaken the resolve of the Yemeni media, but rather increase its determination to expose the crimes of the American-Israeli aggression against the peoples of the region. The blood of the martyrs, it added, will remain a driving force to redouble media efforts across national and international platforms.
The Government of Sanaa also held the international community and the United Nations responsible for their silence in the face of these crimes, calling on free peoples, human rights organizations, and media bodies to take urgent action to condemn the attacks and to bring the perpetrators to justice.
