The Israeli government has approved emergency regulations that will allow it to temporarily shut down Qatar-based TV network Al Jazeera over its coverage of the ongoing conflict in Gaza, reports The Times of Israel and Middle East Eye.
Al Jazeera is the biggest Arabic language news outlet providing televised and online updates on the situation in Gaza, within Israel and in other occupied Palestinian territories.
According to Times of Israel, the emergency regulations will allow the government to temporarily shut down foreign news channels during states of emergency, such as the current war with terror group Hamas in Gaza, if it believes the outlet is damaging national security.
