RAMALLAH, January 1, 2025 (WAFA) – The Palestinian Ministerial Committee, comprising representatives from the Ministries of Culture, Interior, and Telecommunications, has announced the suspension of the broadcast operations of the Qatar-based Al Jazeera Media Network in Palestine. 

The committee also ordered the temporary suspension of work by all journalists, staff, and associated channels affiliated with Al Jazeera. The decision will remain in effect until the network resolves its legal status, which was deemed in violation of applicable laws and regulations in Palestine.

The suspension is reportedly temporary and will remain in effect until the network addresses its legal status in accordance with Palestinian regulations.

The committee stated that the decision was made due to Al Jazeera's repeated violations of Palestinian laws and regulations.
