Al Jazeera is being questioned by Israel about a former reporter who was allegedly a member of Hamas.

On Sunday, the Israel Defense Forces accused Al Jazeera, a news organization owned by the Qatari regime, of hiring a Hamas terrorist whose family had three of the hostages freed in Saturday's IDF raid.

During a rescue mission in Nuseirat, Gaza Strip, the IDF killed the suspected Al Jazeera journalist Abdallah Aljamal.

On Twitter, the IDF accused journalist Abdallah Aljamal of being a Hamas terrorist who held Almog, Andrey, and Shlomi hostage in his family's home in Nuseirat. No press vest can absolve him of the crimes he has committed. @AlJazeera, what is this terrorist doing on your website?

Aljamal was reportedly an author for Al Jazeera and wrote at least one article for the Doha-based network.

The Jerusalem bureau chief of the shuttered Al Jazeera office, Omar al-Walid, stated that Jamal Khashoggi did not work for Al Jazeera, as reported by the Times of Israel.

"Al-Walid stated that the man is not affiliated with Al Jazeera, has never worked for the network, and is not listed as an employee, either currently or in the past. He emphasized that they do not know the man and that all the rumors about him are baseless and untrue."

Al-Walid stated that Al Jazeera intends to take legal action against anyone spreading rumors linking Abdallah Aljamal to the network.

Al Jazeera's English channel senior correspondent Imran Khan stated on Instagram that Aljamal was previously a freelancer.

"The person who was killed in the raid with his family was once a freelance journalist," Khan wrote. "He has never worked for Al Jazeera Arabic or English."

The Palestine Chronicle expressed its sadness upon learning that one of its contributors in Gaza, Abdallah Aljamal, was killed in the latest Israeli massacre in the Nuseirat refugee camp.

The Palestinian Chronicle responded to a Planet Chronicle Digital inquiry with a statement and an article regarding Aljamal's demise.

"The article states that Aljamal's last contribution to the Palestine Chronicle covered a previous massacre that killed over 40 Palestinian civilians in an UNRWA school in the refugee camp. Israeli media is linking Aljamal's family to the Israeli captives, claiming that Abdallah’s father, Dr. Ahmed, and other members of the family, were executed in the process of the bloody rescue mission."

"Respected commentators and journalists online have refuted those claims, highlighting the inconsistencies in the official Israeli narrative."

A nonprofit organization based in the United States, The Palestine Chronicle has a postal address in Mountlake Terrace, Washington.

The Washington, D.C.-based Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) published a May updated report stating that Al Jazeera Arabic, a Qatari-owned TV channel, promotes Islamist terrorism worldwide.

Al Jazeera journalists have been accused of aiding Hamas in the Oct. 7 massacre in Israel. A Palestinian journalist working for Al-Jazeera, Muhammad Wishah, is believed to have been a commander in the military wing of Hamas, according to documents found by the Israeli army in a Hamas base in northern Gaza.

Ismail Abu Omar, a Hamas platoon deputy commander who participated in the October 7 attack and documented it from within the Gaza Envelope, was airlifted to Doha for medical treatment on February 19 after being wounded in an Israeli airstrike in Rafah a week earlier.

Al-Jazeera had a correspondent, Tayseer Allouni, who was given a seven-year prison sentence in Spain for transferring funds to Al-Qaeda, and the media network supported him publicly. Additionally, Al-Jazeera broadcasted live the killing of a U.S. soldier by an Iraqi sniper, which could only have been possible if the network had coordinated with the perpetrators of the killing.

Qatar's ambassador to the U.S., Sheikh Meshal bin Hamad Al Thani, was contacted by Planet Chronicle Digital, Al Jazeera, and the Qatari embassy in London for a comment regarding the MEMRI report.

Nearly 1,200 people were killed by Hamas on Oct. 7 in southern Israel, including over 30 Americans. Currently, Hamas holds more than 121 hostages in Gaza.

Aljamal’s wife was killed during the IDF rescue operation.

Last week, a Tel Aviv-Jaffa District Court concluded that there is a "strong link" between Al Jazeera and Hamas. The court's deputy president, Shai Yaniv, stated that after examining confidential documents, "The evidence clearly shows that Al Jazeera has been closely connected to Hamas for a long time, with Hamas using the media network to further its objectives."

Al Jazeera's reporters track Israeli military movements and relay the information to Hamas, according to Israeli military experts who spoke to Planet Chronicle Digital. Yaniv stated that the evidence indicates that Al Jazeera has harmed Israel's national security.

Naftali Bennett, Israel's former prime minister, wrote on X that Abdallah Aljamal is an Al-Jazeera reporter and a Hamas terrorist who held three Israeli civilians hostage in his home. This has now been confirmed. Unfortunately, many Gaza civilians have been actively participating in terror, with thousands taking part in the October 7th massacres and rapes, and hundreds of thousands providing their homes to Hamas as terror bases, ammunition storage, and a jail for Israeli hostages.

Hamas' use of civilians as weapons is a feature, not a bug. This strategy increases the number of casualties in Gaza. If Hamas is determined to kill Gazans, nobody can stop them. Only Hamas' defeat can put an end to this.
