The Israeli government has reaffirmed to the High Court of Justice that it is still too dangerous to allow journalists to enter the Gaza Strip without military escort. This position was submitted in response to a petition by press organizations seeking independent access for reporters, which the state argues would pose unacceptable risks due to ongoing security threats. The government maintains that both Israeli and foreign journalists have been permitted to enter Gaza only under military supervision, citing safety and operational concerns. The court previously upheld this policy but indicated it could reconsider if circumstances change; however, the state insists that current conditions do not warrant altering the restrictions.
