Near East Broadcasting Station
The Near East Broadcasting Station (also Sharq-el-Adna, Voice of Britain) started broadcasting in Arabic in 1941/1942 from Jaffa, Mandate of Palestine. It was fully financed and run by the British, and the goal of the broadcasts were to "entice Arabs to join British and British-backed military forces, as well as [ ] to maintain political and economic stability in Palestine".
