Ramallah/PNN/
The Palestinian Center for Development and Media Freedoms (MADA) launched a media campaign against the arrests of Palestinian journalists by the Israeli occupation forces under the slogan “Journalists’ arrests are a tool to hide the truth”. The campaign aims to shed light on the arrests of journalists in Palestine and the danger of these arrests on freedom of the press, which increases in the most sensitive times, when frictions take place between Palestinian citizens and the occupation authorities, in order to obscure the truth and silence its voice. The campaign also aims to mobilize international pressure on the occupation authorities to stop arrests of journalists, especially administrative detention.
A landmark Supreme Court ruling states that the media has a broad scope in defining what is in the public interest and that this cannot, in the normal run of things, be curtailed by the courts or by other public authorities, ERR's online news in Estonian reports.
