Israeli troops have used the faux-‘ceasefire’ in Gaza to increase their violence and oppression in the occupied West Bank, mounting a night raid on the offices of broadcaster Al Jazeera in Ramallah:

Israel raids Al Jazeera West Bank offices

The attack comes just over a year after occupation forces stormed the same office and banned the broadcaster from operating at all for forty-five days before mounting a series of attacks on West Bank towns and refugee camps.

The latest also mirrors Israel’s escalation of its violence in the West Bank during the brief and equally-violated Gaza ‘ceasefire’ in January this year as Netanyahu fulfilled his promise to self-described fascist Bezalel Smotrich in return for Smotrich agreeing not to quit Netanyahu’s cabinet in retaliation for agreeing the pause in Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

Israel has murdered more than three hundred and fifty journalists in Gaza as it tried to stop the flow of information to the world about its genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity. The new attack on Al Jazeera – already banned from operating inside ‘Israel’ – raises fresh fears of what renewed atrocities it is now planning for its victims in the West Bank.
