Heavily armed and masked Israeli soldiers raid Al Jazeera bureau in occupied West Bank and deliver 45-day closure order.

While this article doesn’t mention it (yet), their Live coverage does mention that the soldiers also tore down and destroyed images of Shireen Abu Akleh, the Al Jazeera journalist murdered by Israeli soldiers in 2022.

    Al Jazeera’s live coverage a few minutes ago posted an update saying:

    The closure order was signed after a legal opinion and intelligence assessment “determined that the offices were being used to incite terror, to support terrorist activities and that the channel’s broadcasts endanger the security and public order in both the area and the State of Israel as a whole,” a military statement said.

    In some sense it is true that the broadcasts endanger the state of Israel: in the sense that accurately showing the atrocities Israel commits weakens global support for European and American colonization of the Middle East.
