I thought it was over and I'd finally get some rest, but the genocide is back in full force, and I'm back on the front lines.
Honoured to be nominated for an @AmnestyUK Media Award for my reporting @guardian inside the war on Kush in Sierra Leone. Thanks to my amazing producer @FranRankin I hope this film will continue to evoke emotion for actions 🙏 theguardian.com/news/video/2025 #AmnestyMediaAwards

📺Emotive, beautifully shot doc by The Guardian of a year with Long Covid with @DarrenBar88 It powerfully depicts the devastating impact #LongCovid is still having on individuals, families and society. And how the government needs to do more to resolve this crisis.

At the @CommonsForeign earlier this week @DavidLammy falsely states that there are no journalists in Gaza when discussing the UK government's inability to verify who is behind the looting of aid trucks. He fails to elaborate or discuss the now over 137 journalists and media workers killed by Israel in Gaza since October last year. He doesn't mention Israel's systematic targeting of journalists in Palestine as part of concerted efforts to shut down access to information and he doesn't comment on Israel's mass disinformation campaign. He goes on to relay that no politicians like him are able to go to Gaza, but does not say why this is the case. The answer of course is that Israel has banned international journalist from entering Gaza, has systematically targeted Palestinian journalists and media workers in Gaza, and will not permit delegations from countries like the UK to get anywhere near Gaza unless its for a tour of the kibbutz in the Gaza envelope to hear anti-Palestinian propaganda and meet with Israeli military officials. I would urge @DavidLammy to read the latest from @pressfreedom on journalists killed in the Israel-Gaza war published just three days ago: cpj.org/2024/11/journa… I would also be curious to find out the reaction of Gaza-based Palestinian journalists such as @Hind_Gaza @MahaGaza @HossamShabat & @AnasAlSharif0 to this claim by our Foreign Secretary. It seems as though Palestinian journalists and their coverage doesn't matter much to the UK government?
