Israeli jails Grayzone’s Jeremy Loffredo, releases him pending investigation (https://thegrayzone.com/2024/10/11/israeli-jails-grayzones-jeremy-loffredo/)
The criminal case against the American reporter fell apart after an Israeli journalist testified that his own article containing Loffredo’s full video report had cleared military censorship. Yet Israel refuses to let Loffredo leave the country.

This video watched, description: American Journalist Could Face Death Penalty for Reporting in Israel
American reporter Jeremy Loffredo ('The Grayzone') could face life in prison or even the death penalty for the ''crime'' of journalism. Prosecutors argue his reporting was "aiding the enemy in war time".

Adding, from 'Information Liberation':
Israel arrested American journalist Jeremy Loffredo this week for taking video of the damages inflicted by Iran's ballistic missile strikes.
Loffredo is been charged with "aiding the enemy during wartime and providing information to the enemy." https://www.informationliberation.com/?id=64689
Adding: Cynthia... if you haven't, watch the video that Jeremy was arrested for, it's my 'featured' video:

Adding from Grayzone:
Jeremy Loffredo remains in Israeli jail. (https://x.com/TheGrayzoneNews/status/1844540921142182196?t=bLAEkgNZZ-w6LxXM-qsPeA&s=19) 1/2
Officially, police are holding him "on suspicion of serious security offenses for publicly publishing... the locations of missile drops near or inside sensitive security facilities, with the aim of bringing this to the notice of the enemy and thereby assisting them in their future attacks."
The charges stem from Jeremy's report for @TheGrayzoneNews showing the aftermath of Iranian attacks on military and intelligence targets inside Israel—the same exact locations which were openly featured in reports broadcast on ABC News and PBS, neither of which currently face such charges.
Originally, the judge overseeing Jeremy's case ordered him released, saying that since Israeli military censors agreed to allow Israeli media to publish both "word of [Jeremy's] arrest and the publications that led to his arrest," Israel could "no longer justify his continued detention."
However, police appealed this decision. For now, Jeremy remains in custody, and his appeal hearing is scheduled for tomorrow.
The Grayzone unequivocally rejects these outrageous accusations from Israeli police. We stand by Jeremy's legitimate reporting. The claim that Loffredo and The Grayzone represent Israel’s enemy in wartime merely suggests that the Israeli government views the American people and free press as a legitimate target. We represent no one else. We will fight these charges, and ask that you contact the State Department and urge them to act in defense of their citizen detained in Israel. The US has an obligation to defend its journalists who are merely adhering to their ethical obligation to inform the public of pertinent facts."
