Al-Aqsa Voice Radio

Al-Aqsa Voice Radio (إذاعة صوت الأقصى); is a radio station run by Hamas based in Gaza City, Gaza. Together with sister operation Al-Aqsa TV, it is seen as one of the most influential outlets promulgating Hamas's narrative to residents of Gaza since the Second Intifada.

History
Al-Aqsa is a radio station run by Hamas. It broadcasts news and religious programming. It was established in June 2003. The station is based in offices overlooking the Mediterranean Sea in Gaza City.

The radio station, along with its sister operation Al-Aqsa TV "has massaged and promulgated the Hamas narrative" since the Second Intifada. According to The Washington Post, Al-Aqsa is the most influential and far-reaching radio station in Gaza, "essentially Gaza's official state media." Ibrahim Daher, the station's director, has claimed the station's coverage is the leading reason behind Hamas's popularity in Gaza, including by not reporting on negative news about Hamas.

According to the Israeli Shin Bet, Hamas has attempted to incite members in the West Bank to commit attacks via the radio station.

In 2019, the Shin Bet discovered that an antenna located on a position shared by Hezbollah and the Lebanese Army in Marwahin, Lebanon, on the Israel-Lebanon border, had been broadcasting Al-Aqsa's signal from Lebanon into Israel. The broadcasts included messages to Hamas prisoners and could be accessed in Israeli prisons in the Central District and North District. Israel submitted an official complaint to the International Telecommunication Union.
