Israel moves to kick Al Jazeera out of the country, accusing them of inciting violence in Jerusalem. The government plans to revoke the credentials of Al Jazeera journalists, close its Jerusalem bureau and shut down its broadcasts. The move will add pressure on Qatar about how it operates in the region. Al Jazeera responded that it would legally challenge Israel's decision, calling it "an attempt to silence independent journalism."
