The film has also uncovered efforts by both the Israeli and US governments to conceal information about the circumstances of Shireen’s killing and prevent access to the identity of her killer. The documentary was produced by investigative journalist and former Wall Street Journal correspondent Dion Nissenbaum. It was filmed in Washington, Jerusalem, and Jenin, and includes interviews with key figures monitoring the case, including Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen. The film also features new sources who have not publicly spoken about the circumstances and investigations surrounding Shireen Abu Akleh’s death. It has been a year since Israel’s killing of Abu Akleh while she was covering an Israeli military raid in Jenin. The military initially denied responsibility for her killing and even claimed that Palestinian fighters were to blame. Later, Israel admitted that there was a high possibility its forces were responsible. Nissenbaum said the film “will shed more light and proof that she was systematically targeted like other journalists in Palestine by the Israeli army. In the years following Shireen's murder, more than 200 Palestinian journalists have been killed by Israel.”‘Who Killed Shireen?’ — our explosive new documentary is finally here.
