Career and Arrest

She has worked for a number of media outlets, including the Al Jazeera Arabic channel, the women's website "Banfasaj", the Palestinian women's radio station "Radio Nisa FM", and the "Jerusalem Center for Political Studies". And She previously worked for the "Watan News Agency" as a freelance journalist until her arrest by Israelis soldiers.[9] She was arrested as a result of the harsh campaign waged by the Israeli occupation authorities against Palestinian journalists, as she was transparently covering the suffering of the Palestinian people with international and local media agencies. She is currently serving a period of detention in Hasharon Prison, and the lawyer of the Addameer Association submitted a request for her release due to her health condition and the conditions of her nine-month-old daughter, but the occupation refused.[8] [10] [11] [4]

From New York, on May 8, 2024, the Committee to Protect Journalists urged Israeli authorities to release Palestinian freelance journalist Rula Hassanein on humanitarian grounds due to the deteriorating health of her and her infant daughter since March, when she was arrested over comments she made on social media.[4] [8] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18]
