Berlin denounces Palestinian Authority’s suspension of Al Jazeera
Germany’s foreign ministry denounces the Palestinian Authority’s suspension of Qatar-based television network Al Jazeera’s broadcast.
“The Palestinian Authority’s ban on Al Jazeera’s work in the West Bank is deeply worrying,” it says in a post on X.
“Press freedom is a precious asset. Free reporting must also be guaranteed in conflict situations.”
The move has been condemned by press watchdogs and the UN human rights office.
Al Jazeera is already banned from broadcasting from Israel.
