About Observatory
The Observatory, managed by the Afghanistan Journalists Center (AFJC), serves as a comprehensive platform providing timely and accurate information on the tragic killings of journalists and media professionals in Afghanistan. We meticulously document cases where the deaths can be directly attributed to their journalistic pursuits or their involvement in the media industry.
AFJC diligently verifies each case to ensure that the victims' demise is a direct result of their journalistic activities or their affiliation with the media sector.
By maintaining this exhaustive list, AFJC aims to shed light on the grave risks faced by journalists and media workers in Afghanistan while advocating for the protection of their fundamental rights and safety. It serves as a poignant reminder of the relentless challenges and perils that journalists encounter in carrying out their vital duties within the country.
