The Telegraph’s Middle East Editor Richard Spencer and Syrian journalist Yasser al-Hajji will host a debate at Kingston University’s Penrhyn Road campus to discuss the challenges of reporting from besieged areas in war-torn Syria.
The pair will focus on how local and foreign journalists collaborate to contextualise the conflict for a variety of audiences, before exploring the objectives of various jihadist groups, the use of chemical weapons from Assad’s forces and the misery of the Syrian people who are caught in the conflict.
