This investigation reveals that emissions from the Alexandria Company for Refractories plant have exceeded legal limits, based on the Egyptian Ministry of Environment report for 2022. This represents an environmental risk that threatens the health of those living around the factory, which is in the centre of a densely populated area.

ARIJ has conducted a survey to document the losses, humanitarian conditions, and multitude of challenges faced by Palestinian journalists during the ongoing Israeli war in Gaza. This survey includes responses from 383 journalists who are either in Gaza or were there at some point during the war.

This investigation reveals how gender-based discrimination in social media algorithms sabotage election campaigns of female politicians in Lebanon. It also exposes the circulation of misleading information, smear campaigns and online harassment which have hampered the success of female politicians and their ability to reach voters and engage in fair political competition.

A short documentary film (15-mins) which shares the harrowing story of displacement during a genocidal war from the unique perspectives of three different generations of Palestinian artists. Entrapped in the thrashes of escaping constant bombardment, the artists seek shelter in Rafah and live to tell the tale. The short film reflects the plight of the human heart and intentionally omits scenes of physical brutality and violence which have tragically become too often correlated with storytelling on Gaza. The cameraman and producer symbolize the grim reality that every being in Gaza endures, sharing with the world the relentless spirit of the Palestinian struggle for freedom.

This investigation documents, through testimony and statements by male and female journalists in Gaza, the severe mental impact that covering the war has, given the absence of the necessary psychological support that should be provided to them by media institutions.

The investigation reveals the unrestricted spread of violent against Palestinians on Facebook and Instagram, while algorithms on these platforms restrict content supportive of Palestine.
