On World Press Freedom Day, we remember Hossam Shabat—not just as a journalist, but as a fearless truth-teller who gave everything to show the world the reality on the ground in Gaza.
Hossam’s camera became his weapon, his words a shield for the voiceless. He stayed when it was easier to leave. He documented beauty when it still existed, and later, the horror that tried to erase it. Hossam didn’t just report the news—he became part of the story, and his courage will echo far beyond the rubble.
Today, we honor Hossam and all the brave journalists who risked their lives for truth.
