Al Jazeera Ban Israel: Netanyahu’s Cabinet votes to permanently close Al Jazeera offices | Oneindia

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared on May 5 that his government had unanimously voted to close down the local offices of Al Jazeera, a broadcaster owned by Qatar. Netanyahu announced the decision on X, formerly known as Twitter, but specifics regarding the implications, timing, and permanence of the closure remained unclear. This move marks an escalation in Israel's longstanding dispute with Al Jazeera and raises tensions with Qatar, particularly significant as Qatar is actively involved in mediating efforts to end the conflict in Gaza. Israel's contentious relationship with Al Jazeera stems from accusations of bias against the network. #AlJazeeraBan #IsraelDecision #NetanyahuCabinet #MediaBan #PressFreedom #IsraeliPolitics #AlJazeeraShutdown #FreedomOfPress #GlobalMedia #Censorship ~PR.152~ED.103~GR.124~HT.96~
