The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) closed Beit Hanoon Crossing, also known as Erez Crossing. Thus, they prevented the foreign journalist crews from entering the Gaza Strip to cover the ongoing actions of the Israeli onslaught on Gaza.

In addition, the Government Media Office called on the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) and all stakeholders to show concrete steps to condemn the occupation's violation of the freedom to practice journalism work and their right to movement, especially since it has become a permanent policy of the Israeli occupation in every aggression against Gaza.
