Shireen Abu Akleh, the famend veteran journalist for Al Jazeera, the 24-hour Arabic information channel, was a mainstay in houses throughout the Palestinian territories, the broader area and for Arabs and Muslims globally.

The robust but mild-mannered Shireen joined Al Jazeera in 1997 as a subject journalist and was launched on air by the Arabic channel’s Palestine bureau chief Walid Omary. At the moment, just a few feminine Palestinian journalists have been working as reporters, and Shireen’s profession blazed a path for a lot of younger girls aspiring to be journalists.

The primary Oslo Accord had been signed 4 years prior, and in 1995, the second Oslo Accord was signed and the Palestinian Authority was created. After the failure of the Camp David (II) Summit in 2000 and the following outbreak of the second Intifada, the Oslo Accords collapsed. Shireen was in Palestine to mark these moments that had a monumental impact on Palestinians and the area.
