Israel Oct. 7 attack survivors sue Associated Press, accuse it of hiring 'known Hamas associates'

American survivors of the Oct. 7 Hamas attack against Israel are alleging the AP was “materially supporting terrorism" by hiring possible terrorist affiliates.

The survivors, represented by the nonprofit National Jewish Advocacy Center, argued that by paying "known Hamas associates who were gleefully embedded with the Hamas terrorists during the October 7th attacks," the Associated Press was indirectly funding a terrorist organization.

"There is no doubt that AP’s photographers participated in the October 7th massacre, and that AP knew, or at the very least should have known, through simple due diligence, that the people they were paying were longstanding Hamas affiliates and full participants in the terrorist attack that they were also documenting," the complaint read.
