@VlcBarbara@Generaldepie_ Hi Barbara, are you still there? Are you safe? I’m a journalist based in London, can you follow me back so I can send you a message?
@rafamunozgarcia Hello Rafa, are you in a safe place now? I’m a journalist based in London and would like to speak to you, could you follow me back so I can send you a message?
@MigueSedavi96 Hi Miguel, really sorry to see this, I hope you are safe. I work in news in London, could you follow me back so I can send you a message? Thank you
@TheFiveFound Appreciate your concern and sorry you think this causes harm as that isn't my intention. I am not sure what you think is not true, the article focuses on reconstruction surgery, no where it states DEinfibulations aren't available. FYI the 137,000 stat is from 2011.
I was shocked to learn the NHS doesn't offer reconstruction surgery to FGM/C survivors, so I spoke to doctors to find out why..

Have there ever been more targeted killings of journalists in any war in human history? I can tell you I’ve never seen it before in all the Middle East wars I’ve covered since 1991…
GQ Middle East honours Motaz Azaiza (@motaz_azaiza) as our ‘Man of the Year’ in dedication for those whose fearlessness remains unmatched: @byplestia, @hindkhoudary, @wael_eldahdouh, and the countless names we know of and the ones that we don’t.

THREAD:
Was just asked by media and earlier my GP, whether or not Israel is deliberately targeting journalists?
Ofcourse they are, here's why:
1. It discourages reporters from taking risks
2. Reduces quality of material coming out (less human stories people can relate to)

Palestinian journalists bid a final farewell to their colleague, Mohammad Abu Hattab, murdered yesterday in an Israeli airstrike which targeted his home in Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip.
#GazaGenocide
We can’t take it anymore, we’re exhausted… We’re gonna get killed, it’s just a matter of when. There’s no protection, no impunity. These PPEs don’t protect us. Nothing protects journalists. We lose lives, one by one… Mohammed Abu Hatab was here, half an hour ago.
🇮🇱🇵🇸 Those claiming this video shows Hamas bombing the Gaza Baptist hospital are LYING.
The video they shared is from August 2022.
Reuters and Israel’s Digital Spokesperson already confirmed Israel bombed the hospital.
This is an open admission of a war crime. Not a matter of interpretation anymore. Israel is openly boasting of its war crimes. Time for the international community to respond. If the International Criminal Court does not act immediately, it will have cancelled itself.
Al Jazeera's @YoumnaElSayed17 live on air from Gaza as an Israeli missile hits what appears to be a high-rise residential/office tower. Her reporting has been outstanding today.
