House approves media law with journalist criminalization

The Lebanese Parliament unanimously decided yesterday evening to approve the new media law, as proposed by the joint parliamentary committees, without making any amendments. The law aims to replace a law that has been in place for 30 years and includes significant changes in the regulation of the media sector, while retaining the article that criminally persecutes journalists. This has sparked rejection and condemnation from unions and the media community, who consider it a legislative step towards imprisonment and restrictions on press freedom and media rights. The unions emphasized the need to confront this law through conferences and actions, given its threat to journalists' rights and media freedoms in Lebanon.
