Rula Ibrahim Hassanein (Arabic: رولا حسنين; born 20 October 1994) is a Palestinian writer, activist, and journalist from Ramallah, who works with Al Jazeera.[1][2] She has many writings and articles in many newspapers and news websites. She was arrested with 80 journalists from the West Bank and Jerusalem during the war on Gaza, on March 19, 2024, according to a joint statement by the Palestinian Ministry of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs and The Palestinian Prisoners Society. An Israeli court denied her request for release, despite the fact that her nine-month-old Infant baby relies solely on her for breastfeeding.[1][3][4][5][6][7][excessive citations]
Rula is a graduate of the Birzeit University with a major in Journalism and Media, and holds a Bachelor's degree in Media and Political Science, and a Master's degree in Contemporary Arab Studies from Birzeit University.[3][8]
