Michal Husain, Vogue: “The lack of access [to Gaza] is a media strategy that has fundamentally affected reporting of Palestinian civilian life,” she says of Israel’s ban on journalists to the territory. “There is a humanitarian crisis that is ongoing, which covers thousands of children, women and civilian men who have not only been killed but maimed and bereaved in ways that you and I, anyone living a life in comfortable circumstances, can’t even imagine.”
“This is a media strategy,” she continues, “that has meant that the life of the Palestinian civilian is in no way covered in the same way as an Israeli civilian. And both deserve to have their stories told.”
