Stationed in Dubai on 7 October 2023, Rharrit monitored Arab press and social media, documenting perceptions of US involvement. In her reports to senior US officials, she included graphic evidence linking American-made weapons to civilian massacres, emphasising that the majority of victims were children, however, she says she was told the US Administration didn’t want to see that and her reports were stopped.
