May 07, 2025

Palestinian poet Mosab Abu Toha, who has faced deportation threats from pro-Israeli groups in the US, has been awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Commentary.

- DINA BASS & SHIRIN GHAFFARY

The award, which was announced on Monday, honors his four moving essays published in The New Yorker, which combine deep reporting with personal insight to convey the human cost of Israel's genocidal war on Gaza.

Through his writing, Abu Toha offers a moving and powerful account of the Palestinian experience. The four essays — The Pain of Traveling While Palestinian, The Gaza We Leave Behind, Requiem for a Refugee Camp, and My Family's Daily Struggle to Find Food in Gaza — published over the past two years, address a range of themes, from the challenges of leaving Gaza to the destruction caused by the genocidal war, and the daily struggle to survive under siege.
