Journalist Abdullah Miqdad shares his reality while covering the ongoing conflict in Gaza. After nearly two years of war, reporters are struggling with the dire conditions, often living and operating from makeshift camps near hospitals to ensure they have power and internet access. Tragically, their work has become increasingly dangerous, with Israeli airstrikes claiming the lives of many journalists, including five in a recent double strike on Nasser hospital. As the crisis deepens, journalists report not only on the horrors of the conflict but also on their experiences of hunger and exhaustion, as they often echo the struggles of the communities they cover. The emotional toll is compounded by the constant fear of violence, leaving many feeling targeted and vulnerable while doing their work.
