The paperback is now out. At a time when the Middle East is once again in turmoil, immodestly I suggest you take a look at my book to see how the region ended up the way it is. Also available as an audiobook.

Picador just sent first copies of my new book, published on 1st Sept. It follows my BBC series Our Man in the Middle East. Ridiculously proud that I took most of the photos, including the jacket. If you need one book to help you navigate the Mideast, I hope it will be this one.

@leloveluck Terrible decision. You and many colleagues have done stellar work. You don’t deserve this and neither does the Post’s readership.

I have been laid off today from the @washingtonpost, along with most of the International staff and so many other wonderful colleagues. I’m heartbroken for our newsroom and especially for the peerless journalists who served the Post internationally — editors and correspondents who have been my friends and collaborators for almost 12 years. It’s been an honor to work with them. I launched the WorldView column in January 2017 to help readers better understand the world and America’s place in it and I’m grateful for the half a million loyal subscribers who tuned into the column several times a week over the years.

A fitting tribute to the great man. I had a taxi driver once in the US who told me how honoured he’d been to serve Mark Tully with a whisky and soda when he was a waiter back home in India. Mark’s fans were legion.
Steve Rosenberg@BBCSteveR

Sad to learn of the death of former BBC foreign correspondent Sir Mark Tully. For so many years he was known as the ‘Voice of India.’ As a tribute I play one of the pieces Sir Mark selected on BBC Radio’s Desert Island Discs: Danny Boy.

I have said this before, Emma Tucker, the Editor of Wall Street Journal deserves a Pulitzer. She is a Murdoch editor, leading on the facts, joining the @nytimes and Bellingcat and saying ICE is lying. PS Fox News is in the same building as her at 1211.
Phillips P. OBrien@PhillipsPOBrien

Worth noting that the @WSJ has joined with the @nytimes and Bellingcat to say that ICE is lying in its description of the shooting of Alex Pretti. The video evidence more and more supports the view that this was an gratuitous execution. wsj.com/us-news/videos…

3 years ago I beat Bowel cancer and now the big C has returned but this time it is in my liver and lungs. So I have another even bigger battle on my hands but I’m determined to win again. Only time will tell. Fingers crossed 💙

On Saturday, I lost my beloved dad. He died peacefully; his adored partner Pat, his sons and daughters-in-law at his side. Joined @FCDOGovUK as 16 yr old clerk in 1945, 11 overseas postings. Photo taken on day of my farewell at Lancaster House on 26 Sep. RIP John Moore ❤️

The BBC, @AFP @AP @Reuters calling on the Israeli government to let international journalists into Gaza to share the burden of reporting the catastrophe of war and famine with valiant Palestinian colleagues.
BBC Press Office@bbcpress

The BBC, in association with Agence France-Presse, the Associated Press, and Reuters, has launched a short film calling on the Israeli authorities to allow international journalists access to Gaza. Read more: bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/20…

Earlier the White House made claims about @BBCNews reporting which were wrong. It’s important that accurate journalism is respected, and that governments call for free access to Gaza.
BBC News Press Team@BBCNewsPR

BBC STATEMENT "The claim the BBC took down a story after reviewing footage is completely wrong. We did not remove any story and we stand by our journalism. "Our news stories and headlines about Sunday's aid distribution centre incident were updated throughout the day with the latest fatality figures as they came in from various sources. These were always clearly attributed, from the first figure of 15 from medics, through the 31 killed from the Hamas-run health ministry to the final Red Cross statement of ‘at least 21’ at their field hospital. This is totally normal practice on any fast-moving news story. "Completely separately, a BBC Verify online report on Monday reported a viral video posted on social media was not linked to the aid distribution centre it claimed to show. This video did not run on BBC news channels and had not informed our reporting. Conflating these two stories is simply misleading. "It is vital to bring people the truth about what is happening in Gaza. International journalists are not currently allowed into Gaza and we would welcome the support of the White House in our call for immediate access."
