Foreign media union slams Israel strip-search demand
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleIsrael’s foreign media union condemns a demand for a photographer to submit to a strip search before entering Netanyahu’s office.
“The Foreign Press Association is disturbed and disappointed to hear once again that a photographer covering an event today with the prime minister was asked to take part in a humiliating security check before being allowed to attend,” the FPA says in a statement.
Atef Safadi, a journalist with the European Pressphoto Agency, was attending as the FPA representative to take photos of a meeting between Netanyahu and Valls that would have been shared between media.
