Started two wars on gaza that resulted in destroying the infrastructure and ruining most fields. Israel has been imposing a siege on the strip for more than seven years, in addition to blocking the crossings and preventing people from traveling. Palestinian women played a significant role in highlighting these issues in media. This indicates that the Palestinian Society is developed and knows the importance of media. It was introduced to it in a miserable condition as israel is imposing a blockade and encroaching the palestinians, therefore there must be a palestinian reaction to document this situation. So the palestinians media was the first to play the role in this field by graduating a palestinian generation. Of the beginning of journalism and Production Companies in gaza strip witnessed a difficulty in women engagement. Why did it become normal . It was because the society realized that media is the base in life of society like palestinians. We are the owners of cause, this cause is only expressed to the whole world through media. Constant for 45 years until three years ago, there were 650 students, now there are 1,100 students in rolled in the faculty of journalism, female students were forming 50 of the total number in the past years, however it became 6062 , يوميا. We receive applications of joining the Journalist Syndicate every day, especially of female journalism graduates, female members of the syndicate are nearly 30 in whole palestine and 25 in gaza. This number is a good one for them as female. From some traditions and beliefs that prevent them from working in certain careers. One of these careers is media. Journalism, however, palestinian women, in particular, were distinguished with making some break throughs. They achieve tangible success in careers related to radio and television in general, either as camera women, video editors, producers, directors or anters. We as journalists are capable of delivering our message to the world through the culture and mind energy we have. This happens to what happens around us and what we live. The university of palestine had more than one. Major of media, there are public relations, interpretation, electronic journalism, and radio and television, this way students have the opinion to choose one of these majors with what suits their environment and interests, when i first studied media, i knew that i would have to go out many times and theres some surprising things that may happen, especially that here in the gaza strip, there may suddenly happen bombing or king into the strip or Something Like that, i know that my work could get the respect and admiration of the society and it support in different ways, this includes families and other parts of society, for female journalists their career is respected in society, is not similar to الفتيات مهنه تحضى بتقدير واحترام مجتمع ولا indicators of the situation in go strip are frightening, unprecedented levels of poverty, unemployment, independence aid, have put so much, i started my work about eight years ago as a tv correspondent, um, as i started, there has been a lot of difficulty mainly the politic situation. Working as a journalist in general or a correspondent in particular has its own difficulties im a mother of four and of course coming to work you always face the difficulties of coming to work the uh threats everybody else is facing plus having to leave my Children Home alone well it takes a lot of efforts mean i have to work extra hours sometimes and my kids have to give in a lot of things i mean uh i dont cook all the time thats one thing but un used to the lifestyle um plus our work is difficult when its you know the. Society, the beginning was hard, but at the end i proved myself and succeeded, i have proven that what im doing duty, practically if i managed work and home together, i can successfully. Thats because woman is carrying her camera and taking photos like other maleists do, she exer effors and tries to be the one, thus the way society looks this was harsh at the beginning, they didnt accept that. But we overcame that now and they started facilitating the female genus mission and providing support. Some people knew my name and miss me, especially during the clashes of east julia as i was only female shooting there. Theyre contacting me on facebook and asking me where my visit is. They also offer help in case i cant go there. At the beginning of my career, the first challenge was my father, brothers and my husband, inquiring about what im doing. I was able to prove myself and make them change their attitude. Pressure was big that i was mother and studying and working the same time, i had to manage these things without losing any of the three sides. I was living in heart circumstances lately because i was doing my masters, that made me leave home for long hours, sometimes two hours, for sure that affected me psychologically and physically, it also influenced my family, including my daughter and husband and social life. Luckily enough, i havent faced any difficulties as a one. Are used to women being always part of the life, the struggle, they have always been there, whether as political participants or working in all difficult different fields, so i havent faced any difficulties, i mean the Palestinian Society accepts the woman as part of it, so they even support us. Nowadays there is Great Development of the societys attitude of female journalist, it became the opposite as they would help and excuse her when shes late for home, of course there are exceptions. However, essentially, successful female journalist takes care of herself and takes the societys traditions into consideration. This way, متعبه نوعا ما one things is that im pregnant and about to deliver baby. Its possible to have the delivery symptoms any moment. I am still wearing. Despite everything, im happy that im working in my field and serving my nation and society. Working under aggressions, pressure, that situation, financial cases of humanitarian crisis, gives you um really like a courage and a big power and strong pants please. Methods to do and achieve more and more and this is very important for my job right now in this position. My First Experience in war covering was disastros and sad because it was hard to see casualties and motives of your nation. However, it was a big challenge for me that i could prove myself in the field. Other journalists were helpful as i was moving with them in the vehicle. We used to move together whenever there was bombing or shelling to the location. I challenged myself to hold back my tears in front of the marters families and the fragments of childrens bodies. Similar things happened during the funeral of aldar. Training since 1995. The womens air center in the gaza strip is concerned with media. It has a unit for Television Production and documentary movies. Many Young Palestinian women start their careers from this place. The center organizes media courses regularly to improve the skills the trainees so that they become able to work in this field. The first center has started however, we first renovated the center, implemented for the strategic planning, then we started a 200 hour Training Course for some young women who want to learn production, shooting, editing, our First Experience included young women to join it to grow the talent i already have, which is production at television. I went there and registered for Training Courses for year and a half, then at the end of this year a movie was produced or it was documentary that was done as a production experience. Here is a group of young women who are being trained in many kinds of Television Skills like voice, filming, lighting and production. We asked the center to hold these courses because we need a staff for dramas in the movie, we wanted to know how to create drama in the movie, so it was not a real shooting, it had to be professional. Im the camera with drama and documentary films, i was the cameraman of notice and the ways, two drama films. Im also one of the editors of film where on my stuff, from the first places, i grew up in a sports house and was brought up. Sports, my family was and is still supporting me, they are the ones to encouraged me in this field, this has made me more courageous and honest, my father, may allah grant him health, is the one who advises me and discusses everything with me, my father and i are Close Friends and i consult him about everything, he tells me what to do without being persistent, actually my family is very proud of me, i worked on the movie, hope remains a title and won first place, and that was the first movie i won first place for in the. Cinema and art production festival, since then everyone started supporting me and telling me what to do, they gave me the choice to go anywhere, معها حكايه يعني من البيت حتىer, east strip to the west, this path was mind filled for me, as soon as i reached my office, i went on air, reported news happening on my way there, there were cars bombed on my way and reaching office meant i had life, during the war we didnt know the source of the shelling, there was shelling by tanks, planes and boats, that was a really wild war as the only people moving in streets were either fighters or journalists. Either by targeting their vehicles or their offices, Media Group Company with rockets during work. They didnt consider the existence. I think that Holding Trials for israeli leaders or showing arresting warrants for them by some european courts was motivated. Arrest or deprivation of entering some countries, these courts depended on the testimony of journalists, israel realized how dangerous a palestinian journalist would be, and what are they capable of to highlight the palestinian cause suffering, and also to show that war aims at killing the innocent and not ending the resistance or terrorism, as they call it, the main goal was killing palestinians, the bomb. One was targeted in the strip either directly or indirectly, the palestinian media a part of the National Palestinian resistance, so everyone engaged in those israeli assassinations, therefore this is a historical evidence for the palestinian media, even during the last Israeli Aggression on the trip, تم استهداف مجموعهم وانا يمكن something my family may not like, i was destind to have new life twice after the first and second wars on gaza, if theres a third one, i will be a marty, i keep wondering why im still alive up till now, i was facing death more than one time, ذكريات, the memories are ugly, but at the same time make us feel how strong we are, practically speaking, the moment i would leave home those days, leaving we were going towards death, however, when this place was hit by a drone rocket, we started waiting for the f16 to come, actually we turned it into a joke between us and a good spirit, guys, where would the rockets come from, this direction or that one, this plane or that one . After all, we wanted to work our message, we were scared, but we controlled it and got over it, i would feel im on duty and asked go out. And tell the world about what happens and shoot everything to transform the suffering of my nation, if i didnt do this, mother would lose her children, and the child would lose her family with no one knowing about them. Another woman would suffer regardless of being a mother or a sister or daughter, at the end, its a duty, its a testimony for every female journalist in palestine and gaza in particular, they are strong, we have unbelievable determination that words cannot. Express, but we lived that second time during the second war. I also confirmed that were going to live the same if there happens any aggression on gaza. Of the female journalists would back away, became stronger with more experience. Has worked in this field since she graduated from university. She was always in the thick of the action. She is known for showing humanitarian News Features to the world. Has won the. People were following up with our word reports and collected works of hundreds of female reporters and journalists all over the world. At the end they decided that i deserve the title of the best female reporter in war covering in the muslim world. I felt it was the first reward after the war. Rewards are not necessarily money or tangurable. The idea of having such a title is that people were following with what i was and appreciating that i going to death itself for the sake of telling the world that the nation being killed and cleansed. Theres a nation witnessing the melting of its people by what forus in front of them. I succeed in delivering this message, this was what made me happy the most after the war. وهذا كان اكثر شيء اسعدني بعد. Lots of lots of people, lots of successful, lots of and sadness and happiness and fears and and bits of things that against life and come with life, its our turn, its our responsibility as units to work in all those and put it in one circle, and then they cannot say oh, because you sex, your sex system, yes, no, because i a refugee palestinian, i know how to speak in my issue and how to present my own issue, this is my issue, this is my homeland. This is my land and my country. It is not only the 1948 or 1967 borders from the sea to the river. I am ready to let go this send me to israel is here like by the support of the by the support of the united states. Thats why they the land.
