以色列计划于2026年3月关闭陆军电台,以政治偏见为由,引起人们对新闻自由和民主侵蚀的关切。 Israel plans to shut down Army Radio in March 2026, citing political bias, sparking concerns over press freedom and democratic erosion.

以色列内阁已批准关闭陆军电台,这是1950年以来由国家资助的公共广播机构,其运作于2026年3月1日结束。 Israel’s cabinet has approved the closure of Army Radio, a state-funded public broadcaster since 1950, with operations ending on March 1, 2026. 以色列国防部长卡茨和总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡(Benjamin Nateh)支持这一举动, 认为该电台的政治内容破坏军事中立性, The move, supported by Defense Minister Israel Katz and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, cites the station’s political content as undermining military neutrality and being unusual in democracies. 批评者,包括总检察长、媒体团体和民主监督者都谴责这一决定,认为是对新闻自由的威胁,是政府控制媒体更广泛努力的一部分,特别是在拟议改革扩大紧急权力以禁止媒体时更是如此。 Critics, including the Attorney General, media groups, and democratic watchdogs, condemn the decision as a threat to press freedom and part of a broader government effort to control media, especially amid proposed reforms expanding emergency powers to ban outlets. 封锁将消除以色列一半的独立公共新闻来源,引发法律挑战和对民主侵蚀的关切。 The closure would eliminate half of Israel’s independent public news sources, prompting legal challenges and concerns over democratic erosion.
