Live Briefing: Palestinian Authority suspends Al Jazeera
Briefly

"Al Jazeera is one of the few international broadcasters providing uninterrupted coverage of Israel's war inside the Gaza Strip. International journalists have been barred by Israel from entering the enclave for more than a year."
"We are shocked by the decision, which we condemn as an attempt to dissuade the channel from covering the rapidly escalating events taking place in the occupied territories, including in the city of Jenin."
"Our coverage continues, from Jordan, and around the world. Journalism is not a crime," said Hamdah Salhut, reinforcing the commitment to report despite the suspension.
"A report by the Palestinian Journalists' Syndicate found Al Jazeera had in some cases published reports that contained hate speech and deliberate misinformation, posing a threat to Palestinian social cohesion."
