The paperback is now out. At a time when the Middle East is once again in turmoil, immodestly I suggest you take a look at my book to see how the region ended up the way it is. Also available as an audiobook.
Picador just sent first copies of my new book, published on 1st Sept. It follows my BBC series Our Man in the Middle East. Ridiculously proud that I took most of the photos, including the jacket. If you need one book to help you navigate the Mideast, I hope it will be this one.
Joint statement on Gaza from AFP, AP, BBC News and Reuters bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/st…
Earlier the White House made claims about @BBCNews reporting which were wrong. It’s important that accurate journalism is respected, and that governments call for free access to Gaza.

The man who led the offensive that overthrew Bashar al Assad invited me to the presidential palace in Damascus for an interview - now using his real name Ahmed al Sharaa - aka Abu Mohammed al Jolani #Syria #bbcnews youtu.be/SNVfDEqeapQ?fe…
Our latest @BBCNews @BBCWorld report from Syria. Some hope for the future but Syrians want to punish the Assads and those who did their dirty work. Shot and edited by Fred Scott produced @wburema & Lana Antaki youtu.be/YT0xv6bMsVU
Some thoughts on the fall of the Assad regime youtu.be/jpU5z5oaScs
I wondered if the advance would stall. Not yet. Syrian army seems to be crumbling.
Incredible developments. First Aleppo, now Hama. I suspect next stop is Homs, where the battle is likely to be a lot more intense because of the city’s makeup, recent history, location and neighboring areas. Will Hezb and allied militias wage there the fight they did not in…
WATCH: A powerful and necessary report from @jondonnisonbbc about continued civilian suffering in Gaza
WATCH: 5 year old Nisar, had to see with his own eyes, full of tears. He peeps inside the bodybag. Inside is his auntie. Our @BBCNews piece on Gaza as UN says Israel has failed to meet US deadline to ease suffering. With @edhabershon @YousefShomali @Gidikleiman & @edsvebull

A lovely, uplifting and moving report from @jondonnisonbbc Some light in Gaza’s darkness
WATCH “It changes the mood when I play the violin." Mohammed, 14, has to play with the bow tied to his elbow. He lost part of his arm in an Israeli strike. Kids making music amid the mayhem in #Gaza. Our @BBCWorld story with @NickWoolley1234 @cswift2 & Anastasia Zlatopolskai
Horrifying scenes unfolding in Gaza, amidst conflict, relentless Israeli strikes & an ever-worsening humanitarian crisis. I condemn the continuing attacks on civilians. Hostages must be freed, displacement of Palestinians must cease, & civilians must be protected. My Statement👇
