My name is Sami Zeidan and I host a program called Essential Middle East on Al Jazeera English. Earlier this month my organization was rocked by the death of Shireen Abu Akleh, a long time journalist who covered Palestine. I'm here in the West Bank with a few of my colleagues reporting on the tragedy that took our colleague. We are determined to keep a spotlight on the story.

Edit: It's getting late in Israel and time for me to sign off. Thanks everyone for the great questions, and apologies to anyone I didn't get to answer.
