AwardsIn 2008, Omer was awarded the 2007 Martha Gellhorn Prize for Journalism.[14] In the award citation, he was honored as "the voice of the voiceless" and his reports were described as an "humane record of the injustice imposed on a community forgotten by much of the world".[15] Noam Chomsky said he had been following Omer's work for several years and was pleased to learn of his award, "an honor that he richly deserves". He went on, he "...has continued his work with courage and integrity. It is no exaggeration to say that he can serve as a model of honorable journalism."[16] He was awarded the Ossietzky Prize by the Norwegian branch of P.E.N. International in 2009, for "outstanding achievements within the field of free expression".[17] He was also given an honorable mention in Pulse Media's 20 Top Global Media Figures of 2009.[18]
BackgroundOmer was raised in the Rafah refugee camp at the southern end of the Gaza Strip near the Egyptian border. He began working to support his family at the age of six when his father was in an Israeli prison. In time, he took a job at a backpack factory and since then has been a translator, journalist and program co-ordinator.[23] Omer graduated with dual bachelor degrees, English and literature, from the Islamic University of Gaza in June 2006.[24] IncidentsIsraeli restrictions have sometimes stopped him travelling to the West Bank.[25] In 2008, while traveling back to the Gaza Strip via Allenby Bridge to the West Bank, Omer reported that he was stripped to his underwear, humiliated and beaten by Israeli soldiers while traveling into the West Bank from Jordan. According to a United Nations report, Omer is convinced that the brutal assault occurred when the security services were frustrated at their inability to confiscate the money he had been awarded.[26] He was subsequently hospitalized on his return to Gaza, where it was discovered that he had sustained several broken ribs and various bodily contusions as a result of the ordeal. Omer has recovered since and has been able to maintain his position as a journalist.[27] The government of The Netherlands, which had sent a diplomat to welcome Omer and accompany him to Gaza, lodged an official protest with Israel about his mistreatment.[28] References1. ^"Washington Report correspondent Mohammed Omer speaks with Hesham Tillawi", Current Issues TV 2. ^"Mohammed Omer", Al Jazeera English 3. ^"Mohammed Omer", New Statesman 4. ^"Electronic Intifada - Mohammed Omer", Electronic Intifada 5. ^"The Nation - Mohammed Omer", The Nation 6. ^"Inter Press Service - Mohammed Omer" {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080630020912/http://ipsnews.net/new_focus/GellhormPrize/omer.asp |date=2008-06-30 }}, Inter Press Service 7. ^"Right to Facts November 2006" 8. ^"Mohammed Omer", Vermont Guardian 9. ^"It's all about people" 10. ^"Morgenbladet" {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111010005654/http://www.morgenbladet.no/article/20110930/OAKTUELT/709309917 |date=2011-10-10 }}, Morgenbladet 11. ^"Arbetaren"{{dead link|date=February 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}, Arbetaren 12. ^"Ny Tid", Ny Tid 13. ^Rafah Today 14. ^1 "Martha Gellhorn", Martha Gellhorn, 15. ^[https://www.theguardian.com/media/2008/may/19/pressandpublishing.middleeastthemedia "Reporters share Gellhorn prize"], The Guardian, 19 May 2008 16. ^"Norway grants award to Rafah journalist", Ma'an News Agency 17. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.norskpen.no/php/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=457&Itemid=113 |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2010-09-16 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100103165833/http://www.norskpen.no/php/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=457&Itemid=113 |archivedate=2010-01-03 |df= }} 18. ^"20 Top Global Media Figures of 2009", Pulse Media 19. ^"New American Media 20. ^Ossietzky Prize {{webarchive|url=https://archive.is/20061003204221/http://www.norskpen.no/php/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=187&Itemid=94 |date=2006-10-03 }} 21. ^"Pressfrihetspris till palestinsk fotograf", Journalisten {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090215141302/http://www.journalisten.se/artikel/18194/pressfrihetspris-till-palestinsk-fotograf |date=2009-02-15 }} 22. ^"Arabian Business Power 500 2013", arabianbusiness.com 23. ^Christian Avard, "Gaza journalist Mohammed Omer: His life and words", Vermont Guardian, 8 December 2006 24. ^Biography of Gaza Correspondent Mohammed Omer {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081109205429/http://www.p4pd.org/mohammed_omer_bio.pdf |date=2008-11-09 }}, Washington Report on Middle East Affairs 2006.
