Reporting Under Fire: Gaza, Genocide, and the Truth Behind the Headlines

Eleanor Goldfield hosts this week’s program. Her first guest is Shrouq Aila, a Palestinian journalist/producer and resident of the Gaza Strip. She describes daily life under Israeli invasion and genocide, Israel’s targeting of reporters for assassination, and the challenges of living the story she covers. Then former State Department official Matthew Hoh shares his observations from a recent visit to Israel and the occupied West Bank and explains his belief that Israel’s primary goal for the next several years is to displace the West Bank’s remaining Palestinian population and annex the entire territory.
