Hadi Hoteit
Lebanese war correspondent and video journalist who gained international attention for his ground-level documentation of Israeli military operations in Lebanon and their impact on civilian populations. Hoteit reports from active conflict zones, often capturing footage and witness accounts that Western media outlets do not have access to, and distributes his reporting directly on X to a large and rapidly growing audience. His work provides firsthand visual documentation of airstrikes, displacement, and casualties that challenges official narratives from all sides of the conflict. He represents a growing class of independent field journalists whose distribution model bypasses traditional media gatekeepers entirely.
