| [IsraelTimes] Al Jazeera reports that one of its correspondents was arrested by the Palestinian Authority in Jenin overnight due to his coverage of the ongoing IDF counterterrorism operation in the northern West Bank city. According to the Qatari-based news outlet, Mohamad Alatrash was arrested from his home by PA security forces. The reported arrest comes after the PA ordered the temporary suspension of Al Jazeera broadcasts across the West Bank earlier this month against the backdrop of its critical coverage of Ramallah’s crackdown on terror groups in the territory. The PA accused the outlet at the time of “broadcasting inciting content and reports characterized by misinformation, incitement, sedition and interference in Palestinian internal affairs.” |
