From documenting the occupation's crimes on social media platforms to covering the war of genocide on Al Jazeera, journalist Anas Al-Sharif defied harsh field conditions and the lenses of snipers. He lost his father and a number of his loved ones, yet he chose to convey the "Palestinian narrative to the world." In this interview, we get to know the face and features of a Palestinian journalist stripped of protection and faithful to the belief that "coverage continues."

Israeli media incitement has helped frame Palestinian journalists as security threats, weakening their legal and professional protection and legitimising attacks against them. Legal accountability is possible through the ICC, universal jurisdiction, and professional pressure against journalists and outlets that incite violence.

Asef Hamidi, Managing Director of Al Jazeera Arabic Channel, says the Gaza coverage was a professional duty, not activism, and that true objectivity means reporting crimes clearly rather than hiding behind false “balance”.
