This is a non exhaustive list of news where the BBC started by blaming Israel of some war crime since the October 7th massacre occurred, and then had to remove, recant or apologize about after overwhelming evidence against it came to light:

- Al-Ahli hospital explosion (Oct 2023)

- Al-Shifa hospital “medical teams targeted” (Nov 2023)

- Summary executions claim (Dec 24)

- Aid‑centre shooting attribution (Jun 2025)

- Al‑Shifa “raid on medical teams” redux (Jun 2025)

Imagine if the journalists weren’t “forced to do pro Israel PR”.

BBC needs a proper external investigation on the levels of anti semitism that clearly permeate the ranks of their so called journalists.

>after overwhelming evidence against it came to light

Or maybe they removed articles because of political pressure? Post overwhelming evidence against the fact that the Al-Ahli hospital explosion was caused by an Israel airstrike, for example.

Sure, here you go:

Not only every expert consulted by every journal agreed that the explosion was not even caused by an airstrike, but they also agreed it was caused by a projectile launched from Palestinian territory.

You are posting, with a straight face, a link that repeats in all its entirety how nothing conclusive can be stated, how no expert has ever given a definitive answer, and you are saying the article affirms the opposite.

Are you an LLM?

All the consulted experts on the source agree that this wasn't an airstrike.

Most of the consulted experts agree that it was fired from inside Palestinian territory.

No consulted experts agree this was an airstrike.

No consulted experts agree this was fired from outside Palestinian territory.

You keep posting this link while saying it states what it does not.

Maybe you are, in fact, an LLM.

Please point where in the article it states the contrary then.
