LONDON: Israeli television stations are providing security for some of their highest-profile reporters after physical attacks and death threats from far-right Jewish extremists, a British media outlet reported on Tueseday.
According to reports, the N12 channel has provided security details for four of its on-air reporters: Dana Weiss, Guy Peleg, Yonit Levi and Rina Mazliah, after a rise in online threats against them amid recent intercommunal violence.
Reporters from Channel 12, Kan news and Channel 13 have been physically attacked in recent days after rightwing extremists took to the streets to target Israeli citizens of Palestinian origin in various locations.
