The Israel Defense Forces says it has exposed six Al Jazeera journalists as “Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists,” thanks to several documents that prove the affiliations of what it says are propaganda operatives within the Qatari news network.

“Exposed: 6 Al Jazeera journalists have been exposed as Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists,” the IDF posted Wednesday on X. “The IDF has disclosed intelligence information and numerous documents found in Gaza confirming military affiliation of six Al Jazeera journalists in Gaza with Hamas and the Islamic Jihad terrorist organizations, including personnel tables, lists of terrorist training courses, phone directories and salary documents for terrorists.”

Al Jazeera did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

“These documents serve as proof of the integration of Hamas terrorists within the Qatari Al Jazeera media network,” the IDF continued. “Most of the journalists that the IDF has exposed as operatives in Hamas’ military wing spearhead the propaganda for Hamas at Al Jazeera, especially in northern Gaza.”

The IDF did not elaborate on what influence the accused may have wielded, or what their roles were at the network.

What's the geopolitical angle here? Feels like it fits better in other subreddits.

Regardless of how accurate the claims are, this will 100% be used to continue pushing the narrative that (paraphrased) “Israel is trying to censor the media that exposes their atrocities”, despite Al Jazeera being an extremely biased source of information regarding Israel-Palestine to begin with as they are a Qatari state controlled media outlet and the Qatari government is famously very friendly towards Hamas.
