Palestinian Authority Suspends Al Jazeera in West Bank Amid Clashes with Hamas in Jenin
Jan 5, 2025, 09:45 AM
The Palestinian National Authority (PNA) has suspended the operations of the Qatari news network Al Jazeera in the West Bank, citing the network's alleged incitement of sedition and interference in internal Palestinian affairs. The decision comes amidst ongoing clashes between PNA security forces and Palestinian militias, including those aligned with Hamas, in the Jenin refugee camp. Al Jazeera has condemned the suspension, describing it as an action that aligns with Israeli occupation practices. The PNA's move has raised concerns about press freedom in the region, with the Foreign Press Association urging the PNA to reverse its decision. The suspension is set to remain in effect until Al Jazeera resolves its legal status in the West Bank.
