I am a reporter for The New York Times covering Israel and Gaza. I’m based in Jerusalem.
I work on the Live team, a department of The Times dedicated to breaking news. Recently I have worked almost exclusively on the Israel-Hamas war, although I also occasionally write about other parts of the Middle East.
