Ms Zhan, a former lawyer turned independent journalist, travelled to Wuhan in February 2020. There, she documented the Chinese government's response to the burgeoning pandemic.
Her reports shared on platforms like YouTube, WeChat, and the now-banned X (formerly Twitter), shed light on government efforts to control information and suppress criticism of their handling of the crisis.
