@amnanawaz.bsky.social Once again, incredible reporting on the PBS NewsHour. The story on the children dealing with the aftermath of the war in Gaza, and your very personal interviews really moved me to tears. It is a story everyone should see, and no one does a better job at doing this than you. ❤️
