Tel Aviv [Israel], October 26 (ANI/TPS): Israel's Government Press Office reported that since the start of the "Iron Swords" war, it has received a record number of 1,880 foreign journalists. This is twice the number of journalists who arrived in Israel during the 2014 Operation Protective Edge against Hamas in Gaza, and the most during any Israeli military operation.

However, it should be noted that this is a "war" and not classified as simply an "operation" and this is the first time in 50 years that Israel has been in an official state of war.

The United States (358), Great Britain (281), France (221) and Germany (102) sent the largest numbers of journalists to Israel so far.

Even countries that rarely report from Israel, such as Romania, Argentina, Nepal and Singapore have sent journalists to cover the war.

And, Ukraine, which is itself at war, sent two journalists to cover the war in Israel. (ANI/TPS)
