Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Unsubst". The Voice of Palestine (Template:Langx) is the official radio broadcaster of the Palestinian Authority,[1] based in Ramallah, Palestine. It is a subsidiary of the Palestinian Broadcasting Corporation,[2] under the control of the Palestinian Authority. The station was originally known as the Voice of Palestinian Revolution (Script error: No such module "Lang". Script error: No such module "lang".) before the 1993 Oslo Accords,[2] and was launched on 17 October 1998.

On 12 October 2000 – shortly after the outbreak of the Second Intifada – successive Israeli Air Force raids stopped transmission of the Voice of Palestine, destroying the technical equipment used for transmission. As of 2008 the radio service broadcast on shortwave (AM).[3]

The Voice of Palestine broadcasting centre was destroyed by Israel in January 2002. Anne Applebaum wrote that "the Voice of Palestine will remain what it has become: a combatant—and therefore a legitimate target—in a painful, never-ending, low-intensity war".[4]

On 20 March 2023, Israeli authorities ordered Voice of Palestine to be banned from operating within Israel. Israel closed the Voice of Palestine's office in East Jerusalem, which is considered part of the West Bank, and Palestinian territories under international law. The order did not affect the station's operation in the West Bank and Gaza.[1]
