The Journalist Support Committee (JSC) has documented 31 violations committed by the Israeli occupation authorities against female Palestinian journalists over the past year.

In a report published on Monday, which marks International Women’s Day, the non-profit organisation pointed out that nine female Palestinian journalists have been detained or summoned by Israeli occupation forces, adding that some of whom were detained and summoned more than once last year.

The Israeli occupation authorities postponed the trial of Palestinian journalists Mayes Abu Ghoush and Bushra al-Tawil and banned journalist Sondos Owies from accessing Al-Aqsa Mosque twice.

Israeli occupation forces, meanwhile, attacked and beat Palestinian journalists Hanin al-Hilou and Ranin Sawafta and stormed the houses of Raniya Hatem and Laiyla Hamarsheh.

The committee noted that the Israeli occupation army demolished the house of Palestinian journalist Wedad al-Barghouthi and threatened Kristen al-Rinawi and Heba al-Khoudari three times.

The Israeli occupation authorities, in addition, forced Palestinian journalists Kristen al-Rinawi, Mayes Abu Ghoush, and Raniya Hatem to pay hefty fines.

Besides, Israeli occupation forces prevented dozens of female journalists from reporting and made threats against them.

The Israeli occupation authorities also barred the journalists Sondos Oweis and Kristen al-Rinawi from working in occupied Jerusalem and banned Safinaz al-Louh from travelling abroad for treatment.

Israeli occupation forces confiscated the press card of Palestinian journalist Heba Masalha.
