The decision to weld shut Al Jazeera's office in Ramallah, ban its operations in Israel and restrict international media reporting from Gaza is a dire warning for all independent journalists worldwide.
The Israeli authorities have relentlessly targeted Al Jazeera and its journalists, because we remain the only international media network reporting from Gaza and the occupied territories.
The network's crime seems to have been shining a light on the devastating impact of Israel's war on Gaza, and the continuous raids and incursions in the occupied West Bank.
We will exhaust all available legal channels to protect our rights and our journalists. Sadly, this is not new; Israel has a long history of targeting Al Jazeera.
