Israel is increasing curbs on media freedom, with the Al Jazeera Media Community a predominant goal.
Israel is intensifying its crackdown on media protection of its conflict on Gaza and different assaults.
The Al Jazeera Media Community has once more been focused, this time within the occupied West Financial institution, with its workplaces closed down by armed and masked troopers and its operations suspended for 45 days.
A controversial media regulation, handed in April, means motion might be taken in opposition to international journalists for allegedly harming Israel’s safety.
And it’s not simply the international media that’s complaining.
Even Israeli media is beneath scrutiny and its protection of the conflict has to undergo navy censors.
So, how far will Israel go in limiting media freedom?
