A media company\nhosting Arab and foreign satellite offices in Karrada, central Baghdad, was hit\nby a rocket attack on Sunday evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The\nArab television office was hit this evening by a rocket attack on the building,\nwhich houses several media offices, which injured a broadcast engineer, and\ncaused serious material damage,” said Tarek Maher, a fellow Arab\ntelevision correspondent, in a statement for Press Freedom Advocacy Association\nin Iraq.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Association says that\nthe continued targeting of the media institutions represents one of the most\nserious violations Iraq which has been witnessed since the outbreak of protests\nin October, and seeks to muzzle the mouths and shut down various media outlets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The association,\nwhile wishing safety for the broadcast engineer, calls on the government to\ndisclose who targeted the company, and considers not doing so a continuation of\nthe procrastination of investigations and cover-up sought by those who target\njournalists and media in the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
