  Hind Khoudary

  "Journalist" @Hind_Gaza was outed as a Hamas collaborator whose information led to the arrest of Palestinian peace activists. Here she is putting lipstick 💄 on a pig 🐷. No amount of cameras, press vests, or press helmets can disguise who Hassan Eslaiah was. Behind the facade of a photojournalist, Eslaiah worked intimately with Hamas to further its terrorist propaganda machine.

  Hassan Eslayeh

  Hey @CTVNews, we can dress up as a doctor for Halloween, but it doesn't mean we're actually one. The same should be applied to Hassan Aslih. He wasn't a journalist; he was a Hamas terrorist who, according to Israel, took part in the October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorist attack. Stop spreading misinformation!

  Alex Crawford

  If @AlexCrawfordSky considers members of terrorist orgs working for terrorist propaganda outfits to be her “colleagues,” maybe she should reconsider calling herself a journalist.

  Muthana Al-Najjar

  Yet Al-Najjar, an independent Gaza-based journalist who operates a Telegram channel with over 200k subscribers, was working side by side with the terrorists. He entered Israel on October 7 to document the butchering of Israelis by Hamas. His stand-up to camera from Kibbutz Nahal Oz, as gunshots are heard in the background, shocked many Israelis that day. He did not wear a press vest or a helmet to make him identifiable as a member of the press. He clearly did not feel under threat from the Hamas terrorists in his midst.

  Mohammed Fayq Abu Mostafa Ashraf Amra

  EXPOSED: Gaza Photojournalists Shared Call to Infiltrate Israel on Oct. 7 A Gaza photojournalist working for international media called on residents of the coastal enclave to cross the border into Israel on October 7, after Hamas terrorists had breached it, an HonestReporting investigation has found. In November, HonestReporting published an expose that raised serious ethical questions regarding the early morning presence of Gaza photojournalists — including Abu Mostafa — at the breached Gaza-Israel border on October 7. We questioned the morality and professionalism of those photojournalists who appeared to accompany Hamas terrorists on their rampage and inquired as to what level of knowledge these freelancers had prior to the Hamas infiltration, asking whether it was only physical borders that were breached. Now, the exposure of a journalist who proudly proclaims he has been at the border “since the beginning,” coupled with his call to infiltrate Israel while displaying Hamas atrocities — crosses more boundaries.
