Transcribed from the clipping

"The army further tightened its grip on news from the territories by closing down the Palestine Press Service, an Arab-owned, Jerusalem-based news agency of activist journalists that served as a major source of quick information and reports to foreign correspondents." And, of the army’s account of a clash: "because of press restrictions its account could not be verified."
