The New Dark Age

The blockade of Gaza has now been extended to the media

In this week’s News Divide we turn our attention to the Israeli blockade of Gaza, which has now been extended to the media, creating a news blackout that has severely restricted the reporting of the suffering in Gaza to the outside world.

In the last few weeks, Israel has placed a blanket ban on the flow of all international journalists into Gaza. The Israeli government denies that the blockade is aimed at the media and says it has to do with security concerns, rather than controlling information.
