WPF condemns assaults and restrictions imposed on journalists Ariana Ágreda, Andrea Fabbiani, Víctor Federico González, José Luis Guerra, and camerawoman María Marcano. We demand relevant authorities investigate these attacks, which endanger their safety and hinder vital reporting during a disaster.

WPF expresses serious concern regarding the obstruction faced by journalists from ten media outlets, including Silvimar Campos of Canal i and Impacto Venezuela, María Marcano of Venevisión, Nelmary Salazar of Globovisión, Lisbeth Miquilena of Televen, and Ana Carolina Arias of VPItv and Reporte Confidencial, who were barred from documenting a riot at a police headquarters in Porlamar, Nueva Esparta.
