Israel ended relationship with its own newspaper.
🚨🇮🇱ISRAEL ENDS PARTNERSHIP WITH HAARETZ NEWSPAPER
The Diaspora Affairs Ministry cut ties with Haaretz, denouncing its recent claims of Israel enforcing an "apartheid regime" over Palestinians.
The Ministry’s Director-General, Avi Cohen-Scali, stated that the decision aligns with the Ministry's commitment to counter delegitimization efforts against Israel, asserting that Haaretz’s labeling of violent actors as “freedom fighters” was "incitement."
Diaspora Ministry: "We will not collaborate with organizations that harm Israel’s image by accusing IDF soldiers of 'heinous actions.'”
The Ministry's policy underscores a zero-tolerance approach to partnerships with entities it believes undermine Israel’s global legitimacy.
