🧵1. In light of the devastating #Israel-#Hamas war, #GIJN's guide to investigating #warcrimes is sadly relevant once again.

For any journalist investigating the conflict, here are tools and techniques from experts in the field to help your reporting:

2. To understand whether a #warcrime may have been committed against civilians, it is necessary to establish as much detail as possible about the context and circumstances.

Read advice on investigating attacks on civilians by @icij's Maggie Michael. ⬇️

3. When reporting on the missing, building trust with the survivors is a great place to start an investigation.

NEW! 🧵 In this week’s Top 10 in Data Journalism, GIJN features a look at dodgy climate finance deals, a hidden fleet of ships moving Russian oil, and the historical rise and fall of ransom kidnappings in Argentina.

gijn.org/2023/06/09/dat…
In an effort to track accountability of climate change pledges, @Reuters & @BigLocalNews examined thousands of records that countries submitted to the UN to document climate finance contributions.

Journalists found a concerning lack of transparency.

gijn.org/2023/06/09/dat… Image
The @nytimes' visual investigations unit used marine traffic data, satellite images, & social media footage to unravel a mystery related to how a huge oil tanker is part of a so-called dark fleet using fake signals to hide its true location.

@ReutersGraphics 2. The @nytimes data team asked the question: Can the world to make an electric car battery without China? Thanks to the country's dominance over the necessary raw materials, lower labor costs, and loose regulation, the Times concluded, the answer was no.

NEW! Being a journalist in the Middle East & North Africa was challenging in 2022, thanks to a dramatic decline in press freedom.

Yet, despite the obstacles, powerful stories were produced.

🧵Read GIJN's Best Investigative Stories from the Arab World: gijn.org/2023/01/11/202…
@BBCArabic investigated toxic air pollution from a BP oil field in Iraq and its impact on children. The team measured benzene in the air in communities near 4 different oil fields with high levels of gas flaring — the burning of gas.

gijn.org/2023/01/11/202… @OwenPinnell
An investigation by Tunisia-based magazine @inkyfada revealed a Tunisian-British renewable energy company’s plans to establish a massive solar power plant in southern Tunisia, in part to mitigate the gas crisis in Europe caused by the war in Ukraine.

🧵According to findings by @R3Dmx, with support from @citizenlab, journalists & human rights defenders in Mexico were hacked using Pegasus spyware as recently as 2021, even after the country’s government said it was no longer going to use the software. buff.ly/3y6I0e3
🧵Just last month, @direkt36 reported that Hungary's parliament had years ago allowed the purchase of Pegasus without a public procurement process.

The spyware was then used to monitor journalists, politicians & more. buff.ly/3Emrv1t @AndrasSzab @panyiszabolcs @andraspe
🧵#PegasusProject, initially published by 17 media orgs & coordinated by @FbdnStories in partnership w/ @amnesty, revealed >50,000 potential victims of Pegasus spyware, including journalists & heads of state.

Here's the impact of the investigation so far. buff.ly/3ovgWzX
