Western countries are "concerned" about the law closing the island in Israel. Al Jazeera confirmed that the Israeli accusations will not deter it from continuing coverage boldly and professionally.
Yesterday, the Israeli Parliament (Knesset) voted in favor of a law that allows Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to ban foreign media outlets that harm security in Israel, led by Al Jazeera. This law - which was called the "Al Jazeera Law" and was approved by a majority of 70 votes to 10 - gives Netanyahu the ability to ban the broadcast of the targeted channel.
