Israel has no legal right to close Al Jazeera offices in Ramallah: Analysis

2 hours ago 34


Heavily armed and masked Israeli soldiers have stormed Al Jazeera's Ramallah bureau in the occupied West Bank. Staff were given 10 minutes to gather their belongings and leave. Doors to the office have been welded shut and the military has ordered the bureau to close for 45 days. It did not give a reason. The closure of Al Jazeera’s office shows that Israel wants to suppress any voice that tries to bring the truth about what’s happening in Palestinian territory to the world, according to Mustafa Barghouti, secretary-general of the Palestinian National Initiative.
