Freedom and Security of the Press Operating in Areas of Conflict: Discussion
1:30 pm
Mr. Tim Dawson:
Not quite, and actually figures are hard to find. I believe 140 journalists died during the decade-long Yugoslav wars, which is the only conflict I can find that is comparable in this regard. The death toll in Gaza is extraordinarily high. It is the mortality rate of 10% that is the most chilling.
