NNA – The Organization of Asia-Pacific News Agencies (OANA), on Saturday, issued the following press release:nbsp;
quot;The ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestinians in Gaza has reached a level that threatens the safety of journalists in the region. As journalists, we have been the target of grave violence for simply conducting our journalistic duty with great devotion despite all the difficulties we face. There is no excuse for being victimized by such an action which is also truly breaching human rights and international law.nbsp;nbsp;
As OANA we affirm our commitment to fight for the safety and security of all journalists and consider the sanctity of their lives indispensable.nbsp;nbsp;
OANA is deeply concerned about the safety of the journalists working in the region.nbsp;nbsp;
