The PJS added that Israel has wounded at least 430 journalists and killed 685 family members of Palestinian journalists during the same period.

Dear Friends,

The author asks #journalists to read her thread on the #ICE detention of Kseniia Petrova, a #Russian born scientist working at Harvard University. She was detained because, customs said, there were undeclared frog specimens in her luggage. She's hoping to add her perspective on reporting that she thinks mischaracterizes what she was carrying.

Dear #journalists, #bloggers and others in #media: Get ready for the knock-on effects to your jobs from federal funding and staff reductions in the many fields of basic research (NSF, NIH, NASA, etc.). One ex:
Fewer research grants are being issued, thanks to Trump admin cutbacks in funding, so there will be a slowdown in the number of new science, health and technology breakthroughs to report on (from the US anyway). I can’t predict when we’ll begin to feel the drop-off, but it looms. 1/3
Israeli military strikes killed at least 85 people in the Gaza Strip on Thursday.
The dead included local journalist Hassan Samour, who worked for the Hamas-run Aqsa radio station and was killed along with 11 family members when their home was struck.
This is an interesting read, and I'd say a must read in these concerning times of polarisation, especially for #journalists and other #storytellers.

Journalist killed in attack on hospital in southern Gaza
Journalist Hassan Eslaih was killed in Israeli bombardment of the burns department at Nasser Medical Complex, in Khan Younis.
Eslaih was among several people injured last month in an attack on a media tent outside the hospital.
The Israeli annexation authorities issued an administrative detention order against journalist Ali al-Samoudi, 58, from Jenin for a period of six months.
This brings the number of #journalists administratively detained in occupation prisons to 20. These journalists are among the 50 journalists the occupation continues to detain since the beginning of the war of #genocide.

Please vote in the Amnesty Peoples Choice journalism awards. My own vote was coloured by who has been good on the ongoing genocide in Gaza, so it was a close thing between Owen Jones and Jonathan Cook. Finally plumped for the latter.
