His first field reporting experience was in May 2010 when he boarded the MV Mavi Marmara in Cyprus as part of the Gaza Freedom Flotilla aid delivery to the Gaza Strip.
In the early hours of the morning, before going to sleep, Elshayyal contacted Al Jazeera to tell them not to expect anything major just yet; this was the last report to leave the boat before all communication channels were cut off by Israeli troops.
He later noted that that event was the first time he "saw someone shot and killed in front of" him.

During the Egyptian Revolution, he was based in Alexandria and reported from both Cairo and Suez.
During the Fall of Kabul in 2021, he was in Doha.
His exclusive reporting for Al Jazeera includes "secret documents from inside Gaddafi's intelligence HQ and uncovering torture and human rights abuses inside Egyptian prisons."
Throughout his career, Elshayyal has acted as advisor on terrorism, community relations, and racism to the Metropolitan Police, the mayor of London, the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, and the Department for Education and Skills.
