17th century clergyman Thomas Fuller said, “Seeing is believing, but feeling is the truth.” Never has that been more meaningful than today. Impactful, heartrending images are pouring out of Gaza, each more unbearable to witness than the other. Many taken while bombs are dropping or during rescue efforts shortly thereafter by photojournalists who run towards the explosions and not away from them.

Over 270 journalists and media workers have been killed since the war in Gaza began on October 7, 2023. This makes the conflict the deadliest for media workers on record.

Congratulations to ZUMA Photographer Saher Alghorra on winning the prestigious 2025 Humanitarian Visa d’Or award from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).

Saher Alghorra, thank you for your courage, your dedication, and for allowing us to “feel the truth.”

New zReportage: Intervention Haiti’s Growing Chaos, Dec. 17, 2024

Scott Mc Kiernan Presents zReportage.com Issue #968 Story of the Week: Published: TUESDAY December 17, 2024: ‘INTERVENTION: Haiti’s Growing Chaos’ by ZUMA Press photographer in Haiti Patrice Noel: Last week 184 people were killed in the Haitian capital, as Port-au-Prince was rocked by a spike in gang violence that pushed the death toll from Haiti’s spiraling security crisis to at least 5,000. Attempts by the Kenya led Multinational Security Mission to quell the violence have so far failed. The international force arrived in Haiti in June to bolster the Haitian National Police but is underfunded and lacks the necessary equipment to take on the heavily armed gangs. Meanwhile, the Transitional Presidential Council (TPC) the body created to organize elections and re-establish order, appears to be in turmoil. The TPC replaced the interim prime minister last month and has made little progress. It remains to be seen if Caribbean leaders can salvage Haiti’s transition and help get the country back on the road to organizing free and fair elections. Welcome to ‘INTERVENTION: Haiti’s Growing Chaos’
