The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the “Taliban” government in Afghanistan condemned the killing of “Al-Jazeera” reporter Shireen Abu Aqleh in the West Bank, stressing that it was a premeditated murder by Israeli forces.
The Foreign Ministry statement said: “The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Emirate condemns in the strongest terms the killing of Al-Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Aqleh at the hands of the Israeli forces in Palestine. This act is considered an attack on freedom of expression. Israel seeks to hide the oppression of the Palestinians from the world.”
And the Palestinian Ministry of Health announced, earlier this morning, the killing of reporter and journalist, Sherine Abu Aqleh, by the Israeli army, while storming the Jenin refugee camp.
The ministry stated that the Qatari journalist and correspondent for the “Al-Jazeera” channel, Sherine Abu Aqleh, was hit by a direct bullet in the head, killing her instantly, while covering the events of the storming of Jenin camp by the Israeli forces.
The ministry indicated that the journalist Ali Al-Samoudi, the correspondent of Al-Quds newspaper, was hit by a live bullet in the back, indicating that his condition is stable.
For its part, the Palestinian presidency condemned the murder of Al-Jazeera correspondent Shireen Abu Akleh by the Israeli army.
According to the Palestinian News Agency, the Palestinian presidency held the Israeli government fully responsible for this heinous crime, stressing that it is part of a daily policy pursued by Israel against the Palestinian people, their land and their holy sites.
Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett also said, “The Palestinian Authority has rejected, for the moment, an offer to conduct a joint investigation into the killing of Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh.
Bennett added, “The President of the Palestinian Authority is making baseless accusations against Israel,” explaining that “according to the data we have at the moment, there is a not small possibility that Palestinian gunmen opened fire indiscriminately, and they are the ones who caused the unfortunate journalist’s death.”
