Palestinian Press Group Bans Journalists from Taking Pictures of Armed Kids
(AP/Jerusalem Post) - The Palestinian Journalists Syndicate yesterday banned journalists from photographing Palestinian children carrying weapons or taking part in activities by militant groups, saying that the pictures harm the Palestinian cause. The group also called on Palestinian military groups to stop using children in their activities. "We have decided to forbid taking any footage of armed children, because we consider that as a clear violation of the rights of children and for negative effects these pictures have on the Palestinian people," the group said.
