Israel accuses six Al Jazeera journalists of being members of Palestinian armed teams.
Al Jazeera Media Community has rejected as baseless and unfounded Israel’s allegation that six of its journalists in Gaza have belonged to Palestinian armed teams.
The Israeli military claims it has paperwork proving the correspondents are operatives of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
The community says it’s an try and silence tales about Israel’s devastating assault on Gaza and forestall them from being broadcast.
That is the most recent Israeli crackdown on Al Jazeera since its warfare on Gaza started greater than a yr in the past.
What’s behind it? And will this hostility silence the community?
