“Send a 100-strong independent press pool to the Gaza border within 72 hours. Attempt lawful entry. If admitted, report freely. If blocked, document the obstruction in real time. It is time to see Gaza."

This is history in the making. A ceasefire was just announced in Gaza. The world is watching - but we deserve to know the truth.

Without independent witnesses, promises of an end to the killing, the starvation, and the terror are just words.

For nearly two years, international media have been barred from entering Gaza. Inside, Palestinian journalists have had to do their jobs under constant fire and targeted assassinations, at unimaginable cost.

They risked everything to tell the world the truth, and over 200 paid with their lives - making this the deadliest conflict for reporters in modern times.

Enough darkness. This is the moment the world must see Gaza.
