Egypt is undergoing a highly charged political and social moment marked by growing public anger over successive disasters, prompting the regime to initiate a process of media reshuffling.

The Israeli Occupation government has punished media outlets challenging its narrative, even cutting ads from Haaretz over its criticism of collective punishment and apartheid policies against Palestinians.

Senior journalists from major newspapers in Europe and the U.S. have recently joined an all-expenses-paid trip by pro-Israel groups to the occupied Palestinian territories.
