Palestinian journalist and freed prisoner Imad al-Ifranji told Shehab Wire that journalism in Gaza and Palestine has never been a job or luxury, but rather a constant mission of sacrifice and dedication to truth and to a people seeking justice. Al-Ifranji, recently released from Israeli detention, said reporters covering the conflict have simultaneously documented events and endured the war's direct toll.
Gaza's press corps faced both the dangers of active combat and the responsibility of bearing witness to events unfolding around them during the latest military operations, according to al-Ifranji's account.
