University Project Turned Powerful Tribute
A university project at Yarmouk University in Jordan has taken the internet by storm, turning into a heartfelt tribute to the late Palestinian journalist Saleh Aljafarawi. What started as a simple assignment quickly became a viral sensation, connecting students and viewers to the legacy of a fearless reporter.

Students gathered on campus, microphones in hand, to share memories and messages for Saleh Aljafarawi. The video captures a mix of smiles and serious moments, as students exchange warm greetings and blessings in Arabic. Their words, though sometimes cut short, reflect deep respect and admiration for Saleh’s work and spirit. The scene is set with students in ‘PRESS’ vests, Palestinian flags waving, and a sense of unity lighting up the night.

The real magic happened when a recorded phone call with Saleh Aljafarawi—made a year before his passing—surfaced in the project. Students listened in, sharing laughs, prayers, and stories about their time together in Gaza. Saleh’s voice rings out with warmth, calling his friends ‘my dear’ and reminiscing about shared experiences. The students, clearly moved, promise to keep praying for him and thank him for his courage and kindness.

Tragically, Saleh Aljafarawi, just 27, was killed in Gaza City’s Sabra neighborhood during clashes with an Israel-linked militia, only days after a ceasefire was announced. His fearless reporting brought the world closer to the daily realities of Gaza, earning him recognition for his raw and honest coverage. The tribute video ends with students and friends exchanging heartfelt prayers and blessings, showing just how much Saleh meant to those around him—and how his story continues to inspire.
