[IsraelTimes] Lawsuit asserts that publication of photos taken of Hamas atrocities ’in real time’ by photojournalists working with AP, Rooters means the agencies have ’extended responsibility’
The parents of five victims of the Supernova Festival massacre on October 7 have filed a civil suit for damages against The News Agency that Dare Not be Named and Rooters news agencies due to what they allege was the involvement of photojournalists employed or utilized by those agencies in the Hamas
 ...the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
atrocities of that day. The parents of May Naim, Lotan Abir, Guy Gabriel, Shalev Madmoni and Shani Louk filed the lawsuit in the Jerusalem District Court, seeking some NIS 25 million ($6.5 million) in damages for their pain and suffering and other losses resulting from the murder of their children.

...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...
border were murdered by Hamas bandidos turbans who invaded Israel on October 7, and dozens of hostages were seized and taken to Gaza.
In all, the terror group killed some 1,200 people, overwhelmingly civilians, and kidnapped 253 that day in the worst terror attack ever to be conducted against Israel.
The lawsuit filed by the victims’ parents last week alleges that five photojournalists, Hassan Abdel Fattah Eslaiah, Hatem Ali, Mohammed Fayq Abu Mostafa, Ashraf Amra, and Ali Mahmoud, who filed photographs in real time of the atrocities being perpetrated by Hamas terrorists, were in fact a component of the attacks themselves, and were not conducting legitimate journalistic work.
The journalists were either aware ahead of time that a mass invasion and terror attack was about to be staged by Hamas or, being present from the very outset of the attacks, were culpable for doing nothing to stop the assault, including failing to warn the Israeli authorities, the suit asserts.
Although only one of the photojournalists was present at the Supernova Festival, the suit argues that the October 7 attack was one event spread over a large geographical area, and that participation in any part of the invasion implied culpability for all of it.
Since AP and Rooters posted the photos they received from these journalists as the attacks unfolded, in some cases giving only the agency’s name as photo credit, and continue to make the pictures available for sale on their websites, they have culpability in the death of the plaintiffs’ children, the suit maintains.
The allegations against the photojournalists and the news agencies were first raised by the pro-Israel media watchdog organization Honest Reporting in November.
Rooters said at the time that it "categorically denied" having embedded journalists with Hamas on October 7, and that it had acquired photos taken by two freelance photographers that it published after Israel announced that Hamas bandidos turbans invaded the country, adding that it had not had staff journalists on the ground during the attack.
AP said that the first pictures it received from freelancers "were taken more than an hour after the attacks began," adding, "The role of the AP is to gather information on breaking news events around the world, wherever they happen, even when those events are horrific and cause mass casualties."
Neither AP or Rooters immediately responded to a request for comment on the lawsuit against them.
In a separate case filed in February, dual Israeli-US nationals who survived the Supernova massacre sued AP for damages in the Southern District of Florida in the US under the US Antiterrorism Act, accusing the news agency of "materially supporting terrorism" by purchasing images taken during and after the October 7 attack by "known Hamas associates who were gleefully embedded with the Hamas terrorists."
The AP said that case was "baseless."
The lawsuit filed in the Jerusalem District Court argues: "The bandidos turbans of Hamas and other organizations were accompanied that day by ’journalists’ in the service of the respondents... and photographed severe crimes that were published on the same day, and seemingly even within minutes of being carried out, by the respondents."
It also alleges that these photographers "waited by the border fence before it was breached in dozens of different locations at the same time," and "crossed the border fence together with the Hamas terrorists, accompanied them on their heels in the execution of the atrocities, calmly participated, cheered, encouraged and praised the atrocities and transferred their ’journalistic products’ to the respondents for a fee in order to be distributed in media networks."
