I have watched the News hour with Judy Woodruff for many years. I am appalled and surprised by the lack of coverage on what is currently happening in Israel/Palestine. The UN Security Council is preparing to hold an emergency meeting to discuss the recent visit by Israel’s new national security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, to the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied East Jerusalem. His visit was condemned across the Middle East. Ben-Gvir’s actions could lead to more conflict. Jordan’s Foreign Ministry decrying it as “scandalous and [an] unacceptable violation of international law.”
Al-Aqsa Mosque is one of the holiest sites in Islam and Judaism. Why isn't this important story being reported in the News Hour?
