I've just been researching for an upcoming video on the role of American mercenaries in Yemen. Most of what we know about this story was unearthed by this fantastic piece of journalism. It's well worth watching. #Yemen #HouthiRebels

More than 50 correspondents and presenters from ⁦Sky News⁩ ⁦BBC News (UK)⁩ ⁦CNN International⁩ ⁦Channel 4 News⁩ @ITN NBC News ⁦ABC News⁩ CBS News stand together to call for access. I am among them. This by ⁦Alex Crawford⁩ explains 🔽 news.sky.com/story/israel-h…

It's outrageous that Israel continues to block international journalists from entering Gaza. I'm glad to count several friends among those who've signed this letter demanding access to Gaza.

Hard to watch but so important. An important film by my brilliant colleagues at BBC Arabic Investigations. An insight into what civilians in Gaza have had to endure for the last 4 months. Inside Gaza’s ambulances youtu.be/8qfWdgSBTi0?si…

Airstrikes play into the #Houthis hands, validating their narrative that they’ve been at war with America. Now they can evade governance responsibilities & force more people into contributing to their “war efforts.”
#Yemen

The United Arab Emirates recruited former al-Qaeda members and hired American mercenaries to carry out political assassinations in Yemen, according to a new BBC investigation.

The UAE government has denied that it had targeted individuals not connected to terrorism
