After the White House accused the journalist of taking” the expression of Hamas,” the BBC on Wednesday defended its monitoring of an event in which Palestinians were killed close to a Gaza help center. At least 31 people were killed on Sunday near the US-backed help center, according to Gaza’s legal defense organization. However, the Israeli military denied that Hamas and the support center’s superintendent had opened fire on civilians inside or around the facility. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt responded to a query about the incident by saying on Tuesday that the BBC had to” right and get down” its version of events. The management is aware of those information, and we are now checking their accuracy because, regrettably, unlike some in the press, we don’t believe everything that is said about Hamas to be true, she said. We like to investigate it when they speak, unlike the BBC, which had numerous stories, she said, citing reports that reported various death tolls. They then had to correct and delete their whole history, saying,” We reviewed the images and couldn’t find any evidence of everything,” she continued. However, the BBC claimed that the White House’s assertions were inaccurate and that it had not changed its account. It is entirely false to say that the BBC removed a tale after reviewing the film. It stated in a statement that” we did not remove any account and we stand by our journalism.” It claimed that” total normal” journalistic practice was to be used to present varying death tolls in stories because the information was “updated throughout the day with the most recent fatality numbers as they came in from various resources.” The death charges were always” clearly attributed,” it continued, “from the first number of 15 from doctors to the last Red Cross speech of “at least 21” to the final figure of “at least 21″ from the Hamas-run wellness ministry.” According to the International Committee of the Red Cross ( ICRC ), 179 people were rushed to Rafah’s field hospital, including 21 who were later declared dead. Additionally, Lavitt criticized the Washington Post for how it handled the affair. One article was removed by the Post over purchasing issues “because it and earlier versions of the content didn’t adhere to Post justice standards.” The BBC’s protection of the Israel-Hamas conflict has previously drawn criticism because its title and article were updated on Sunday night to make it clear that there was no consensus regarding who was to blame. After it became clear that the 13-year-old speaker was the son of a mature Hamas number, it apologized and acknowledged” serious imperfections” over a film called” Gaza: How To Survive A Firefight.”
