❗️Israeli lawmakers back bill to let government close foreign media without court oversight
The Israeli Knesset on Monday advanced a bill granting the government authority to shut down foreign media outlets without judicial approval, Haaretz reported.
The measure, proposed by Likud lawmaker Ariel Kallner, seeks to make permanent the so-called “Al Jazeera Law,” which previously allowed temporary closures during emergencies. It passed its preliminary reading by 50 votes to 41 and still requires three more votes to become law.
