The International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) reported that 49 journalists were killed throughout 2019, either as targeted victims, in bomb attacks, or in crossfire. The highest number of journalist deaths occurred in Mexico, with 10 fatalities.

This figure is almost half that of the previous year, and represents the lowest number in the last five years. The highest number of journalist deaths occurred in 2015, with 112 fatalities.

Despite the reduction in deaths, IFJ President Younes Mjahed stated that threats, imprisonment, online bullying and harassment, and self-censorship against journalists still haunt media freedom and human rights.
