A group of October 7 survivors are suing Al-Jazeera in a US court, claiming that the network provided “substantial assitance” to Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
The case was filed to the federal court in Washington by dozens of victims of the attacks, including Morris Schnaider, the uncle of Shiri Bibas, who was murdered in Hamas captivity along with her two children, Kfir and Ariel.
The claimants are bringing the suit based on American counter-terror laws, accusing the Qatari channel of knowingly assisting Hamas to spread propaganda, recruit activists and incite violence.
Schnaider, the brother of Shiri's mother, Margit Silberman, who was murdered along with her husband Yossi in Nir Oz, said: "The cruel murder of Shiri, Kfir and Ariel by terrorists from Gaza is an inconceivable atrocity that has destroyed our family forever, and has caused pain to millions of good people around the world.
