NBC News drops journalist arrested for pro-Hamas Facebook posts

JERUSALEM (TND) — A journalist who was arrested by Israeli police for Facebook posts about Hamas terrorists' Oct. 7 invasion of Israel is no longer doing work for NBC News, a spokesperson confirmed Monday.

Mirvat al-Azzeh was booked on suspicion of inciting terrorism and identifying with a terrorist organization last week, according to the Jerusalem Post.

"It’s killing me, it’s a black comedy, the old woman looks happy, a bit of action before she dies," the 45-year-old freelance producer posted in response to a woman's kidnapping, according to Israeli newspaper Haaretz. "Sirens all the time, the Jews are hiding and the Arabs are out drinking coffee on their balconies."
