How do war journalist manage to be in the middle of a conflict without being killed?

1.07K viewsOther

I watched Civil War yesterday and even though I generally knew what their job is I was surprised that they were actually in the very middle of the fighting, tagging right behind the soldiers and taking pictures. Why does either side of the conflict just lets them be, especially the side that might be ‘in the wrong’, knowing that they would report on their atrocities?

Israel has killed countless journalists. So to answer your question, they do get killed. And often.

They get killed plenty. For example right now Israel deliberately targets Palestinian journalists and Ukrainians have a liquidation list of Russian journalists

What makes you think they don’t? In Gaza alone, I think over 80 have been killed. You just don’t hear about it.
