Israel raids and shuts down Al Jazeera’s bureau in Ramallah in the West Bank
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — Israeli troops raided the offices of the satellite news network Al Jazeera in the Israeli-occupied West Bank early Sunday, ordering the bureau to shut down amid a widening campaign by Israel targeting the Qatar-funded broadcaster as it covers the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip.
Al Jazeera denounced Israel’s “unfounded accusations” as it continued broadcasting live from Amman, Jordan, even as Israeli troops welded shut its office doors in Ramallah and confiscated its equipment.Armed Israeli troops entered the office and told a reporter live on air that it would be shut down, saying that staff needed to leave immediately. The network later aired what appeared to be Israel troops tearing down a banner on a balcony used by the Al Jazeera office.
“This arbitrary military decision is a new aggression against journalistic work and media outlets,” it said. “We will continue to fight the enemy channels and ensure the safety of our heroic fighters,” Karhi posted on X. Neither he nor the Israeli military addressed what legal authority Israel had to order the bureau closed.
It remained unclear whether the Israeli military would target Al Jazeera’s operation in Gaza as well. An order closing Al Jazeera in Israel has been repeatedly renewed in the time since, but it hadn’t as of yet ordered the Ramallah offices closed.
