SANA condemns the attack on one of its letters by Israeli forces in the rural area of Quneitra.
Details:
The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) strongly condemned the hitting of one of its reporters by direct fire by Israeli forces, while fulfilling its professional duty to document the suffering of the residents of the village of Bir Ajam with Israeli violations in the Quneitra areas.
The agency confirmed that the attack constitutes a blatant violation of the freedom of journalistic work, and a violation of international laws and conventions that guarantee the protection of journalists while fulfilling their duties, noting that it came within the framework of the ongoing Israeli attacks on Syrian territory.
SANA emphasized that targeting journalists and trying to prevent them from reporting the facts and documenting the suffering of citizens represents an attack on the freedom of the press and the public's right to know and access information.
The agency renewed its approval to continue to carry out its media and professional mission in conveying the truth and documenting the suffering of the Syrians, based on its journalistic responsibility and upholding the right of media personnel to work freely and safely, away from any threat or target.
