Journalists without borders say U.S. President Donald Trump is responsible for "disturbing deterioration" in press freedom.

A media liberal supervisory agency said Palestine has become the world's most dangerous country for journalists due to the Israeli war on Gaza, and dozens of journalists may be killed due to their work.

In the first 18 months of the war, Israeli troops killed nearly 200 journalists, and at least 42 were killed while working.

"Trailed in an enclave, journalists in Gaza have no shelter and lack everything, including food and water," a group in Paris, which is also known for its French acronym RSF.

“In the West Bank, journalists were often harassed and attacked by settlers and Israeli forces, but the crackdown reached new heights after October 7 with a wave of arrests, when impunity for crimes committed against journalists became a new rule.”

In its report, the RSF said journalists in Hamas and Islamic Jihad were also under their work, and a cybercrime passed by the Palestinian authorities has restricted freedom of speech and press freedom in the press.

In the latest index, Palestine ranks 163rd in press freedom, down six positions from 2024.

The report said that 112 distances of press freedom fell in 180 jurisdictions, with a global average of 55 points.

The United States has lowered two positions to a record 57, while Watchdogs accuse U.S. President Donald Trump of overseeing “an unsettling worsening in press freedom.”

"President Donald Trump devalues ​​the press every day in a campaign and has made it clear that the federal government will arm the media," the RSF said.

“For example, his early measures in his second mission, to politicize the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), ban the Associated Press in the White House, or to remove global media outlets in the United States, so that the country’s news media has harmed the country’s news media and said he intends to follow his threats to bring potential crises to the U.S. journalism.”

Israel ranked 112th in 11, and journalists had no borders to show that restrictions on press freedom, media diversity and editorial independence have grown since the beginning of the Gaza war.

"Since 2021, only the journalists working on Channel 14, a media that covers Benjamin Netanyahu in favor of view, have received interviews with the country's leaders who accused Israel Press of conspiracy against him," the group said.

“In 2024, the Minister of Communications called on the government to boycott Boycott Haaretz, one of the few newspapers criticizing Netanyahu’s policies, including the civilian massacre in Gaza, and the topic has been largely suppressed.”

Eritrea has the lowest jurisdiction, second only to North Korea and China.

Norway ranks first in press freedom, followed by Estonia, the Netherlands and Sweden.
