Publication : Press Release

The International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) today said that 2012 has been one of the bloodiest years for journalists and media workers after recording 121 killings in targeted attacks and cross fire incidents. The IFJ warned that these terrible numbers are the result of systematic failure by governments and the United Nations to fulfill their international obligations to protect and enforce journalists’ basic right to life.
