Paul Conroy was a great journalist, human being and friend to so many. He did heroic things with incredible humility, and for all the right reasons. In an era when the frauds and propagandists are thriving, his passing is even more devastating. share.google/S6HCMfFcbLlQAM…

Will definitely be listening. No-one does this like @JasonLeopold

War correspondent and filmmaker @benjohnanderson joined me to detail the numbing physical and psychological elements of war reporting — and ponders whether or not the truth can really change anything. Link: youtube.com/watch?v=OrYw6p…

@wendzedin @ChrisLynnHedges @lindseyhilsum @paraicobrien @SecKermani @krishgm @mattfrei The @Channel4News team is one of the best there is, and has been for as long as I can remember

@ChrisLynnHedges @benjohnanderson @lindseyhilsum @paraicobrien @SecKermani @krishgm @mattfrei a lot of food for thought here you guys…

"Palestinian journalists right now are crying." Al Jazeera’s @Hind_Gaza became emotional as she described the Israeli attack on the Nasser Hospital in Gaza's Khan Younis that killed four Palestinian journalists.

At least 20 people were killed, including five journalists, by an Israeli attack on Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, Gaza. Two shells hit the hospital in quick succession - the second exploding as journalists and rescue workers arrived at the scene. The UN said the killing of journalists should shock the world into demanding accountability and justice. The Israeli military said it regretted 'any harm to uninvolved individuals'. Warning: this report contains distressing scenes.

Over the last year, Palestinian farmer Saeed al-Amour has attempted to defend his land in the occupied West Bank, as settler attacks have become more frequent and violent. His olive groves near the Palestinian town of Al-Rakeez have become a target for Israelis from the illegal settlement of Avigayil, a kilometre away. Warning: this report contains distressing scenes of violence. Producer/Director: Katie Arnold Editor: Kristy Breetzke

@Rudabathefaerie @Itz_Tiq I’ll take pleasure in telling him!

@Rudabathefaerie @Itz_Tiq Thanks for the kind words and support. And last time I spoke to him, Bill was doing great, and even doing Ironmans. Here’s the link: youtu.be/Ja5Q75hf6QI?si…

@ferrarimanf355 @deray Sure. Anas was killed with 4 of his colleagues, meaning Israel has now killed at least 186 journalists since the war began, more than the number killed in WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan, combined. That enough for you or would you like some more?

@benjohnanderson @deray Tell the whole truth, bro.

Killed by Israel in a precision strike on a tent for journalists outside the gates of a hospital- al-Shifa

Very good factual analysis of what’s being done in Gaza by @adam_tooze It’s not complicated, and outlets who keep giving airtime to pundits who deny it are failing miserably. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/one…

@PacoCuatroBurro @NYMag Some are close friends, and brilliant, brave and honest soldiers. After we failed to deliver on all our promises in Afghanistan, they deserve sanctuary, and I think they’ll be a huge asset to the UK too.

Kudos to @NYMag for publishing this long and deeply reported piece by Suzy Hansen. Whether you know this issue well, or believe the myth that it’s too complicated to understand, it’s well worth your time, especially when we’re seeing so much cowardice from news orgs elsewhere

I'm not sure that people realize how abnormal it is for journalists to be killed in wars. More have been killed in Gaza (232) than in the Civil War, World Wars I and II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War (+Cambodia and Laos), the Yugoslav wars, and the Afghanistan war, combined.

Breaking News: Israeli military officials say they have no proof Hamas routinely steals UN aid, undercutting a claim Israel has used to limit food for Gaza. nyti.ms/4opoK4n

Always read anything @rtraister writes, but definitely read this blistering piece on Andrew Cuomo before Tuesday’s election open.substack.com/pub/rebeccatra…

@longtyler666 @snboxing Appreciate the kind words Tyler- had to take a break for health reasons and now it’s very hard to get good foreign affairs projects commissioned anywhere. Very happy to hear you liked the work I did though, thank you 🙏🏻👊🏻
