Havana, December 17 (RHC) -- Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel on Sunday expressed his rejection of the murder of nearly twenty journalists committed by the Israeli army in Palestinian territories since last October 7.

In his denunciation through the social network X, the president assured that, for every journalist murdered in Gaza, thousands of others will use their noble work instruments as weapons to denounce Israel's crimes.

At the same time, Díaz-Canel asserted that the reporters in that war scenario will continue to denounce the complicity of the U.S. government, which with its shameful veto in the UN Security Council is prolonging the genocide in Gaza.

According to reports from non-governmental organizations, in only two months, 17 journalists have been massacred in the Strip as a result of the systematic bombardment of the Palestinian civilian population.

Since the conflict worsened last October 7, the media and humanitarian organizations have counted more than 20 thousand Palestinians killed by the Zionist incursions, among them some six thousand children.  (Source: Prensa Latina)
