Israeli Raid on Al Jazeera

Kenneth Roth, former executive director of Human Rights Watch, criticized Israel’s closure of Al Jazeera’s Ramallah office, linking it to the network’s vital coverage of the war in Gaza and repression in the West Bank.

He noted that Al Jazeera has been a key source of information on Israeli crimes against Palestinian civilians.

Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur for the occupied Palestinian territory, echoed Roth’s sentiments by reposting his message, adding, “No witnesses allowed.”
