About me
Youmna ElSayed, Awards winning journalist and Al Jazeera English Correspondent in the Gaza Strip.
I’m a mother of 4 children. In addition to the awards earned for my coverage of the Gaza war, I have received the Human Rights token for my advocacy for Human Rights and Dignity. I aim to convey Gaza’s human stories and provide a voice for the voiceless, raise awareness of the difficulties, suffering, and obstacles faced by the Palestinian people.
Before becoming Al Jazeera English correspondent, I worked as a freelance journalist for a number of international news outlets, including TRT Digital, TRT World, RT, Kuwait English Channel, CNA, and the Associated Press.
