9 years later and this brilliant editorial cartoon from my good friend @iGaddo still tickles but reminds me of the sacrifice journalists have made reporting on Ethiopia over the decades. Proud it was inspired by this interview. https://t.co/3tUAPLA5ke

I got pickpocketed in Poland using the oldest trick in the book, an ‘accidental bump’ and my phone and wallet are gone. I feel like such a fool 😂

Didn’t they switch from private guards to @G4S? Del Monte is one of the hardest companies to report on. Utazungushwa from Kenya to US. This is another sad to add to the many who have been killed and a community that has gone through hell.

Journalists are #NotATarget. Attacks against journalists are attacks against fundamental freedoms. A free press is essential to human rights, democracy and the rule of law; and to ensure the truth is brought to light and perpetrators brought to account.

UN Sec Gen: ‘ There must be individual responsibility for the killings of journalists.’ Targeting of journalists in conflict zones is a war crime. Israel’s closest allies Germany, US and the west can no longer be silent and just ‘ condemn’ these killings.
Global condemnation grows after Palestinians held funerals for five Al Jazeera journalists killed by Israel in Gaza, with the UN calling it a “grave breach of international humanitarian law.” 🔴 Follow our LIVE coverage: https://t.co/22NXUKsMEO

Emmanuel, I’m deeply sorry for the loss of the friend and a courageous colleague Anas Al-Shariff. His killing adds to the nearly 270 journalists and media workers now killed by Israel since October 7, 2023 - a devastating toll on press freedom and truth telling. We cannot remain
My colleagues @SamuelBaker_B,@erastus4lif thank you for lifting up my spirits on a dark day mourning a friend and journalist Anas Al-Shariff killed by brutal Israel regime. Silence is no longer an option with what Netanyahu is doing. #pressfreeom. #freeGaza
