Speaking in the House of Lords on 17 September 2026

Debate

Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor: Citizenship

Contribution

I thank my noble friend for that. She is absolutely right that attacks on all journalists are a matter of grave concern. We are very concerned by the high death toll of journalists in Gaza. Reporters covering conflicts should be and must be afforded protection under international humanitarian law. Access to conflict zones is vital for the media to carry out their role effectively—a role that we all depend on.
