The Israeli military shut down the Al Jazeera bureau in Ramallah, claiming the outlet incited violence, despite it operating in a Palestinian-controlled area.
Historian Rami Khouri emphasized that this raid reflects a broader Israeli policy aimed at suppressing accurate reporting on Palestinian issues since 1948.
The heavy-handed approach from Israeli forces at the Al Jazeera office underscores ongoing tensions, with multiple reports of military actions resulting in Palestinian casualties in the region.
Given the accusations against Al Jazeera of incitement, the situation highlights the ongoing struggle over media freedom in contexts of conflict and occupation.
