Israel’s War on Gaza – October 2023 to January 2024
I woke up to the news of the Hamas breakout from Gaza on October 7th and was immediately hired by Sky News and told to head to the Holy Land.
Over the next 108 days I covered the war, initially, mostly from roof tops and balconies; such are the demands of news coverage these days. But then when I switched to Al Jazeera I was deployed to the West Bank where I got out to cover the incessant IDF raids on the towns and villages under Israeli occupation. Access to Gaza was impossible and I salute the hundreds of brave journalists inside Gaza who have told this story, many of them paying the highest price for their endeavours.
