Gaza : Several Gaza journalists received anonymous overnight phone calls warning them not to cover upcoming events planned by the Fatah movement, the AP reported on Monday.
It said that reporters for at least five local and foreign news outlets received calls late Sunday and early Monday warning them to stay away from events planned by Fatah to celebrate the 43rd anniversary of the veteran Palestinian movement’s establishment.
The reporters asked that their names be withheld because they feared retribution from Hamas.
A Fatah rally scheduled for Tuesday has been banned by Hamas, which repeatedly has cracked down on Fatah activists and harassed journalists covering pro-Fatah events since the Gaza takeover.
