Check FAQAbout Markus
I am an Austrian freelance journalist based in Israel, reporting for German-speaking outlets such as Kurier, Datum, and Jüdische Allgemeine. My work focuses on Israeli society, politics, and the wider Middle East, with a strong interest in how conflict, media, and identity intersect. Fluent in German, English, French, and Spanish, and Hebrew I bring multilingual access to sources and the ability to triangulate perspectives across different regions. On the ground in Israel and the Palestinian Territories, I cover current events, social change, and cross-border environmental issues such as water diplomacy and climate cooperation. Alongside field reporting, I pursue academic research in media psychology and the digital public sphere, which informs my journalistic work with deeper analytical insights. Available for features, live hits, research, and analysis from Israel and the region.
