We crossed the US to track the impact of the abortion bans for my latest doc: "The A-Word". We met women left bleeding out in ER, who were forced to give birth to partially-formed babies after enduring life-threatening pregnancies, who are now infertile👇 https://t.co/TaZ5R5pQKB

I was also laid off from @washingtonpost in today's cuts. I am incredibly proud of the work my colleagues and I did, including our unflinching coverage of the Gaza war -- which still hasn't ended for Palestinians there. Please, readers, support the journalism this world needs.

Hi @JeffBezos, what you did today to the Washington Post is a monstrosity. It should be criminalized. Maybe Amazon is a shopping mall, Blue Origin a travel agency, but the Post isn’t a utility. It’s a legacy, a piece of history, an American institution. If you don’t respect that

Heartbroken to have been laid off by The Washington Post today. It has been the honour of a lifetime to work with these colleagues for a decade, from Damascus to Baghdad, Derna to to Bakhmut. I am proud of our work. Thank you, everyone.

Feel so incredibly privileged to have spent 13 years as a foreign correspondent at the Washington Post. What a wild run: Lebanon, Iraq, Jerusalem and Berlin and so much more. Thank you to everyone that trusted me to tell their stories.

The Post has lost so many incredible reporters today, including it's entire Middle East team. This is about more than economics, it's also about press freedom. What a terrible day for journalism.

Today a source warned me that my reporting lines could have me killed. Just an average day as a foreign correspondent. I can’t count the number of times I’ve come under fire or had windows rattle from blasts. Our international staff risk so much to bring home news. #SaveThePost
