Palestinians instruct journalists and NGOs not to publish photos of Palestinians with weapons

I found a guide to media companies, social media and NGOs from the Palestine Institute for Public Diplomacy called Communicating Palestine that essentially tells news organizations to not take any real news photos - like pictures of Hamas, or any Palestinians who have not given specific permission to be staged and photographed.

In short, it pretends to enforce "ethical storytelling principles" but instructs the media and NGOs not to use any photographs that show Palestinian violence, and to only use photos where the Palestinians shown are aware that they are being photographed - meaning, only photos that are carefully staged to tell a specific narrative aligned with the PIPD's directives.

This is the exact opposite of real journalism.

How many media organizations - or photojournalist stringers for major media - follow these instructions? Because these are exactly what Hamas wants all news photos to look like as well.
