UK military’s media censorship ‘D-Notice’

independent journalist Matt Kennard:

“UK military’s media censorship ‘D-Notice’ committee had 42 different requests for advice on whether to publish information about UK Special Forces in the 18 months after it issued an instruction to media editors not to publish information about the SAS and Gaza in October 2023

The S*n reported on 27 October 2023 the SAS had deployed to the UK base on Cyprus for Gaza operations

The ‘D-Notice’ committee sent out its media ‘advisory’ the following day

We have not heard a single thing about the SAS role in Gaza since

Requests for advice about UK Special Forces topped the number of requests throughout the period from October 2023 to April 2025. The most frequent requesters for advice on whether to publish were UK journalists

The ICC and ICJ must investigate”
