| 2019-11-21 |
| [IsraelTimes] Director of the Paleostinian Authority-funded al-Araz production company that hosts Paleostine TV temporarily arrested; correspondent for the channel summoned for questioning. Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan confirmed the closure of offices used by Paleostine TV and the Ministry of Education. "I will continue to pursue a firm policy against any attempt by the Paleostinian Authority to violate our illusory sovereignty in the capital," Erdan said in a statement seeking to justify the closures. Erdan also accused Paleostine TV of producing anti-Israel content in which the country is presented as "responsible for war crimes and ethnic cleansing." |
