It is disheartening to see today that the strength of international law and humanitarian law no longer seems binding, replaced by the presumed right to overpower others. This is unworthy and shameful for humanity and for the leaders of nations.

As we all try to digest what happened last night, it is sobering to consider the potential effect on efforts to address the climate emergency. Next week COP29 climate talks take place in Baku, Azerbaijan. @mohadow lays out the stakes for @ContextNewsroom https://t.co/uJ3qc8Ta4A

We deserve protection as Arab journalists covering Gaza, the occupied West Bank, & Lebanon. The blue press vest should mean something. But especially in the last year it has made us all more of a target. I find myself turning down assignments I usually wouldn’t have thought twice about. And that’s the point. To silence us. To silence our reporting.
