Al Jazeera has accused Israel of a 'baseless fabrication' after six of its journalists were accused of being 'terrorists'. The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) claims it has found documents and computer files proving that the six, who are all based in Gaza, have long-standing links to Hamas or Islamic Jihad. Al Jazeera, which is the only international news company to have staff permanently based in Gaza, has denied the accusations, defending the journalists and insisting that Israel is simply trying to block all coverage of its military operations in the north of Gaza.
