L’Association de la presse étrangère (FPA) en Israël a protesté lundi contre le traitement par la sécurité du Premier ministre d’un photographe auquel il a été demandé de se déshabiller avant de couvrir la rencontre entre Benjamin Netanyahu et son homologue français.
Le journaliste ayant refusé de retirer ses vêtements et été interdit d’accès, les agences de presse étrangères se sont retrouvées sans photos indépendantes de l’évènement.
Les agences membres de la FPA, dont l’Agence France-Presse, ont refusé par solidarité et en forme de protestation d’utiliser les photos qui auraient été mises à leur disposition par le bureau de presse du gouvernement.
Atef Safadi, photographe « établi et respecté » travaillant pour l’agence EPA (l’agence européenne de photographie de presse), avait été choisi pour assurer le « pool » photo de la rencontre, c’est-à-dire photographier l’évènement et redistribuer ensuite au reste de la profession, afin d’éviter une trop forte affluence de journalistes.(...)

#Muhammed_Muheisen is an award-winning photographer for the Associated Press. Serving as the chief photographer of Pakistan, many of his images are haunting portraits of Afghan refugees.
Starting in 2001, Muheisen began covering major events in the Middle East, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the Iraqi conflict. He also covered events in Saudi Arabia, China, Afghanistan, Yemen, Egypt, Syria and France. Today, he brings the visuals of a down-and-out Pakistan to the rest of the world.
An April 2013 TIME magazine profile on Muheisen put his line of work into great perspective: “In Pakistan, cameras draw unnecessary and unwanted attention to the photographers wielding them, making it difficult to avoid impacting the scene by their presence. Muheisen cannot avoid his influence in the scene. But when one examines his photographs — particularly those of children — it’s evident his subjects do not mind his warm presence.”
