Virtual Briefing with Journalists on the Ground with Just Vision

I invite you to join Just Vision, +972 Magazine, and Local Call on Monday, June 30 at 1:00 PM ET / 8:00 PM Jerusalem time for a timely virtual briefing with journalists on the ground, who will help make sense of the regional stakes of Israel’s assault on Iran, the deepening humanitarian crisis in Gaza, mounting repression in the West Bank, and the growing threats to press freedom. Register here.

I will be moderating the conversation alongside Haggai Matar (Director of +972 Magazine and Co-Director of Local Call), and our discussion will feature the following panel of writers and editors:

• Mohammed Mhawish, Contributing Writer, +972 Magazine: In the midst of a genocide, Mohammed covered the destruction of Gaza and its people from the ground. Now living in exile in the United States, he writes about his homeland from abroad, including recent work that focuses on documenting the lives, culture, and history of Gaza.

• Orly Noy, Editor, Local Call: Orly’s most recent work includes a searing analysis of the existential threats posed by the Israeli military’s hubris and a warning of the dangers of regime change fantasies. Her background as an Iranian-Israeli offers a unique perspective on developments in both societies.
• Shatha Yaish, West Bank Reporter, +972 Magazine: Shatha, who recently joined +972 after over a decade with AFP, covers East Jerusalem and the West Bank, most recently writing on the Israeli army’s use of the war with Iran as a pretext to seal off and lock down towns and cities throughout the West Bank.
• Oren Ziv, Staff Reporter, Local Call: Oren covers topics ranging from refuseniks to military and settler violence in the West Bank. A photojournalist, he’s been on the scene documenting the aftermath of missile strikes from Iran.

Please join us for this critical conversation by RSVPing here. A Zoom link will be provided upon registration.
