IFJ 2018 Report on journalists and media staff killed: time for action! The International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) today releases its 29th report on journalists and media staff killed in the course of their duties in 2018. Copyright: REUTERS/Omar Sobhani The report, In the Shadow of violence: journalists and media killed in 2018, details cases of 95 journalists and media professionals who lost their lives in targeted killings, bomb attacks or crossfire incidents. The number represent an increase of thirteen killings more than in 2017. Yemen, India, Mexico, Afghanistan and Syria recorded the most devastating tolls while South Asia becomes the world’s most dangerous region for journalists, according to the report. The IFJ says that the increase in killings takes place in the context of an increasing polarization of views across the world with the rise of dangerous nationalist and populist forces in many countries and the stigmatization of journalists and media by politicians and the enemies of media freedom. The report also points at the pervasive level of impunity that prevails across the globe where 90% of journalists' killings remain unresolved as the authorities all to often fail to conduct credible investigations into these crimes.
