The real news is how anyone would believe that Israel says the truth about anything at all.

The real news is how the BBC, Guardian, NYP and all mainstream media repeats and amplifies israeli discourse taking it at face value as objective truth

The incident had already garnered international attention since it involved workers of multiple international agencies. The footage was in the hands of the International Red Cross and the and the UN and was about to be presented at the UN council. There was no way to cover it up at this point. All that remains was about who gets the scoop, salvaging whatever credibility that remains while controlling the narrative.
