Fatah says that Facebook's closure of their TV channel over pro-terror content "constitutes a media blockade" of "occupation and racism”
Headline: “Fatah: The closure of Awdah TV’s page by the Facebook management constitutes a dangerous lining up with the occupation and racism”
“The Fatah Movement said that the Facebook management’s decision to remove the page of [Fatah-run] Awdah TV from its website constitutes a media blockade, which serves the occupation system and comes in parallel with the financial, political, and economic blockade policy that this system is implementing against our people.
In a statement by the [Fatah] Commission of Information, Culture, and Ideology, Fatah said yesterday [Sept. 14, 2021] that the fact that Awdah TV’s page was closed at a time when an organized attack is being waged against the official Palestinian [PA] media constitutes a desperate attempt to silence the credibility of our narrative and its facts on the ground…
Fatah emphasized that it is continuing its media mission through Awdah TV and all its media outlets, out of its commitment to the Palestinian national principles and its people’s legitimate right to fight the occupation and injustice…
It said that the reasons for removal that Facebook used as excuses to close the page are tantamount to a certificate of esteem, especially because it is connected to the duty that the channel is fulfilling towards the heroic prisoners in the occupation’s prisons in general, and the live coverage regarding the six prisoners… who realized their right to freedom (refers to terrorist prisoners who escaped from Gilboa Prison; see note below -Ed.).”
