Palestinian Journalist Slams Al-Jazeera For Support Of Militants Clashing With PA Security Forces

Palestinian Journalist Ayman Khaled criticized Al-Jazeera Network (Qatar) on his KZbin channel on December 15 and 23, 2024, calling its behavior "shameful and unprofessional." He accused the network of "beating the drums" in support of militants in Jenin, describing them as "resistance fighters" while Palestinian Authority security forces were trying to collect their weapons. Khaled stated that, in reality, the militants are "nothing more than Iranian collaborators." He played a video showing armed militants in military fatigues saluting the Resistance Axis from Jenin to Tehran. Khaled also condemned Al-Jazeera for presenting the situation in the Jenin refugee camp as though local resistance forces were clashing with "security forces," without clarifying that these were the security forces of the Palestinian Authority, the legitimate authority in Jenin.
