Al Jazeera: A Window of Light and Truth

Later, I was deployed to Iraq where I covered the aftermaths of war. A story on the victims of chemical weapons in both the first and second Fallujah battles was another milestone in my professional journey. After that, I went to Libya, where I documented the tragedies of displaced people fleeing the belligerent assaults on the capital, Tripoli, by Khalifa Haftar’s forces. The destruction was massive; the suffering enormous. With Haftar’s defeat, more tragedies are still surfacing. Amid all these dark times, we never lost sight of Al Jazeera’s mission: to tell the human story; to be the voice of the voiceless. Al Jazeera is not only our window to the world; it is a window of light and truth amid all this darkness.
