Four journalists from The Grayzone were detained in Israel and one of them is still in custody.
American Grayzone journalist Jeremy Loffredo was captured and beaten while he was on assignment in Israel. He was with three other journalists, including Andrey X, who said on social media that he was “beaten, blindfolded, and taken to an Israeli military base.” Andrey and two others were released but current reports are that Loffredo is still in custody without his phone.
This was just hours after another Grayzone journalist pushed the state department on its duplicity in war crimes in Ukraine and Gaza. Could this be related?
The United States pulled out all the stops to get Russia to release Wall Street Journal journalist Evan Gershkovich, who was detained by Russia for months after reporting on sensitive state information. Will it do the same now that one of our own is detained by Israel, a supposed ally?
