Israel Cuts Ties With Haaretz for Supporting Terrorism

Israel has officially cut ties with the Haaretz newspaper after its publisher "expressed support for terrorism" and called for Israel's government to be sanctioned.

The government unanimously approved a proposal Sunday to cut ties that was constructed by Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi, which called on the Israeli government and those funded by it to "cease to engage with the newspaper Haaretz in any way and not publish any advertisements in it."
