6 days ago by geneva_convenience to c/palestine
Kermani, Channel 4 News’ foreign affairs correspondent, has covered conflict zones around the world, including Israel’s war genocide on Palestinians.
In a post on X, he shared a letter from Israeli authorities notifying him of his ban after he landed at Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv.
“Just arrived in Tel Aviv for coverage ahead of the Israeli elections,” said Kermani. “Only to be told the Israeli authorities are denying me entry to the country!”
The decision was later reversed by Israeli authorities Kermani said in a follow up post on X.
