Tel Aviv Tribune’s correspondent said that one of the security forces of the Palestinian Authority assaulted Tel Aviv Tribune’s correspondent in Tulkarm, Laith Jaar, and threatened to shoot him while he was with the photographer in the vicinity of the Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital to cover the massacre carried out by the occupation forces in the Tulkarm camp in the West Bank, with an unprecedented aerial bombardment that killed 18 A martyr.
Laith Jaar narrated how a member of the Palestinian National Security attacked him and the photographer with him while they were in the vicinity of Thabet Thabet Hospital, noting that the officer, named Ahmed Ghassan Qawzah, attacked him personally, beat him, insulted him, and threatened to shoot him if he advanced toward the vicinity of Tulkarm camp or Watch it again anywhere in Tulkarm
Laith Jaar explained that this attack was preceded by a massive incitement campaign against Jaar personally on social media platforms, where “suspicious pages” carried out extensive incitement.
It should be noted that the Israeli occupation forces stormed the Tel Aviv Tribune office in Ramallah about two weeks ago and ordered it to close for 45 days according to a military order. They then confiscated all the equipment and documents in the office, prevented its employees from using their cars, and stopped the channel’s broadcast.
The military order to close Tel Aviv Tribune’s Ramallah office was preceded by incitement by Israeli ministers and officials against the channel.
Tel Aviv Tribune Network condemned the Israeli occupation forces storming and closing its office in the city of Ramallah in the West Bank, and stressed that these repressive measures aim to prevent the world from seeing the reality of the situation in the occupied Palestinian territories and the war on Gaza, while reactions condemning this measure continue. In a statement at the time, the network described the storming of its office as a criminal act, and said that Israel’s continued suppression of the free press aims to hide its actions in the Gaza Strip and the occupied West Bank.
