The Israeli court has approved the government’s decision to extend the closure of Al Jazeera’s office in Ramallah for 60 more days, the news outlet reported.

On September 22, Israeli forces stormed the office and banned Al Jazeera for 45 days under a military order.

They then confiscated all equipment and documents in the office, prevented employees from using their cars and stopped the channel’s broadcast.

The ban has been extended several times since then.
