Al Jazeera’s journalists risk everything to report on Israel’s war on Gaza, enduring adversity, displacement, and the deaths of their colleagues and families.
After the devastating opening months of Israel’s war on Gaza, the second episode shifts to southern Gaza. Here, Al Jazeera’s Arabic- and English-speaking correspondents and crews face increasing danger as they establish makeshift operations in tents amid the widespread destruction, turning temporary shelters into news centres. These include Al Jazeera English’s three main correspondents, Hani Mahmoud, Tareq Abu Azzoum and Hind Khoudary. The team suffers yet more personal tragedy when al-Dahdouh loses his son Hamza, killed in an Israeli air strike with Abudaqa while reporting on an Israeli attack. Correspondent Momin al-Alshrafi loses 22 members of his family in an air strike on the Jabalia refugee camp, and another correspondent, al-Ghoul, goes missing for 12 hours before re-establishing contact.
Intimate footage and firsthand accounts show network journalists continuing to report under diabolical conditions, documenting the unfolding genocide with extraordinary courage.
