More journalists killed outside of war zones in 2020: analysis
More journalists were killed outside of war zones this year, and the majority of them were deliberately targeted, Reporters Without Borders said Tuesday.
The advocacy group identified 50 journalists who were killed this year: 45 professional journalists, one nonprofessional and four media workers. The total amount is a slight decline from last year, when 53 journalists were killed.
"This year's figures confirm a trend that began in 2016 and has become more marked over the past two years: the number of journalists killed in war zones keeps on falling. It is now countries considered to be 'at peace' that are proving to be the deadliest for journalists," the group wrote in its report.
