The scan is the headline only; there is no body text on it to transcribe.

Context added by this archive

Eight months after Jenin, a state banning a film about it, printed as news in New Jersey. The word the headline uses for what the film is about is battle — which is one of the two available words, and the one the ban presumably preferred.

The clipping belongs to the newspaper that printed it, or to the news agency that supplied the copy. It is reproduced here for research, criticism and commentary. A city here is where the newspaper was published, not where the story came from, and on most records it was taken from the masthead.
