From AP:
Israel’s Supreme Court on Thursday upheld a ruling that requires government authorities to grant qualified Palestinian journalists accreditation to work in Israel.
The decision was a victory for foreign news organizations, many of whose Palestinian reporters have not been granted press cards needed to cover official events since Israeli-Palestinian violence broke out in September 2000.
Israel’s Government Press Office, which led the effort to deny the Palestinians press credentials, argued that some pose a security threat and are biased against Israel in their coverage.
