Jana Jihad made headlines years back for being the youngest journalist in the world, following recordings she shared on Facebook from the age of seven- showing the hardships and occurrences faced by residents in her area of Nabi Salih by Israeli forces.

She is now twelve years old but is still fighting to make the story of children in Palestine, like herself, be heard.

We caught up with her during a recent visit she made at the Arab Media Forum, where she explained the reason she chose to go into journalism.

After asking her about the piece of work she has been most proud of, her response completely took us aback.
