Protesters Demand Justice for Anas al-Sharif and Other Journalists Assassinated by Israel
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Protests and vigils continue worldwide demanding accountability and
justice following Israel's targeted assassination of Al Jazeera
correspondent Anas al-Sharif along with four of his colleagues and
another journalist outside Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City on Sunday.
Here in New York, hundreds of protesters gathered outside The New York
Times offices Tuesday decrying what advocates say is the Western media's
complicity with Israel's genocidal war on Gaza and the relentless
killing of Palestinian journalists. In Texas, protesters mobilized
outside The Dallas Morning News headquarters, demanding U.S. reporters
to speak out against Israel's attacks on the media. Similar actions took
place in Los Angeles and other U.S. cities, including Washington, D.C.,
where demonstrators rallied outside the offices of NBC, Fox News, ITN
and The Guardian. Protesters gathered in Mexico City Tuesday in
solidarity with Gaza journalists. Mexico is the deadliest country in
Latin America for media workers.

Meanwhile, the Hind Rajab Foundation and the Palestinian Centre for
Human Rights have filed a complaint at the International Criminal Court
against Anas al-Sharif's killers.
