Earlier today, we contacted Times editors over an article by Gabrielle Weiniger (“Bodies of Israeli hostage couple recovered from Gaza”, June 5) which included the following sentence, referring to Hamas accusations that the IDF has killed dozens of Palestinians waiting in line for food at Gaza Humanitarian Foundation aid distribution sites.
We noted that the sentence frames it as a fact that Israeli troops opened fire on innocent Palestinians, while their own previous coverage makes it clear that it’s only an accusation from the territory’s Hamas-run health ministry.
Our complaint was upheld, and the sentence amended accordingly.
See our op-ed in the Jewish Chronicle for background on the biased reporting about these accusations against Israel.
