Suleiman Masuda posts Arabic story after Eyal Berkovich suspension, then deletes it

In depth

Channel 13 correspondent in the United States, Suleiman Masuda, posted a story in Arabic reading "Every dog will have its day, one after the other" with one emoji. The story was deleted a few minutes later. The post came hours after Channel 13 suspended Eyal Berkovich. Masuda did not indicate who the words were aimed at.

Journalist Gil Mashali asked: "Who was he referring to?" The words were deleted within a short time, but they sparked a storm online. In a post he published on Instagram, Masuda wrote the sentence in Arabic, responding to the sharp message.

The timing, and the broadcast in which it all began, have drawn interest. Masuda, the channel's correspondent in the United States, did not add an explanation for his words.
