Israeli journalist Ayala Hasson has spoken publicly for the first time about the storm surrounding her at the Israeli Broadcasting Corporation (Kan) and the outpouring of support she has received from the public in recent days.
In an interview on Galei Israel radio's "Fathi and Zimri Ba'am" program with hosts Yotam Zimri and Noam Fathi, she shared her complex feelings about the unfolding events and thanked the public for their warm embrace.
"I'm very strengthened by the public. I've never seen anything like it, I haven't seen support like this," she said during the interview. "People are flooding me with messages. Sometimes the story is bigger than the person themselves, and that's what I feel here, that this is a story of a very large public."
She addressed her personal struggle with the pressures and media storm, adding that despite the public and emotional turbulence, she remains firm in her convictions and professional path.
