Al Jazeera Rejects Israel’s Claim, Calls Journalist’s Labeling as Hamas Operative “Baseless

Gaza-“Al Jazeera has vehemently denied Israel’s claim that Shireen Abu Akleh, the network’s journalist killed in an airstrike, was a Hamas operative. The news network dismissed the allegation as “baseless” and “unfounded,” standing by their journalist’s reputation and work.

Abu Akleh was killed while reporting on an Israeli military operation in the West Bank. Israel initially claimed she was caught in crossfire, but later suggested she may have been a Hamas operative.
