Jamal Khashoggi, a respected Saudi journalist and columnist, made significant contributions to media outlets such as Middle East Eye, The Washington Post, and Al-Arab News Channel. During his tenure as editor, he played a pivotal role in reshaping Al Watan into a platform for progressive voices in Saudi Arabia. Khashoggi was well-known for his vocal criticisms of the Saudi government, particularly targeting King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Following his ban from Twitter, he left Saudi Arabia and continued to oppose the country’s involvement in Yemen. His tragic assassination at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul in 2018 sparked global outrage and calls for justice.
