Gaza dominated @RTS_media last night so why did the RTS cancel the Special Award for Gazan journalists which had been almost unanimously recommended by RTS Jurors ? Around 200 of our colleagues have been killed in unprecedented numbers telling a story for us we cannot access
The On-Demand Journalism award goes to Gaza 101: Emergency Rescue from BBC Eye Investigations and BBC News Arabic #RTSAwards

We are deeply grateful to work with you @YousefHammash and extremely lucky to have you on our team
While the honor of an Emmy nomination is undeniable, the accompanying burden is equally immense. I’m deeply grateful to @Channel4News for the opportunity to be part of such an outstanding team.
