BBC Forced to Apologize Over Claim IDF ‘Targeted Medical Teams and Arab Speakers’ in Raid on Hamas Base Hidden Under Hospital
On Wednesday, BBC claimed Israeli soldiers were “targeting medical teams and Arabic speakers” during a raid on Al-Shifa hospital compound in Gaza.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said that on Tuesday, Israeli soldiers were entering the Al-Shifa hospital compound and that the hospital, which has tunnels beneath it, has served as a headquarters for Hamas.
Video of BBC’s report was shared on social media, “Good god, this is blood libel from the BBC. The IDF said it entered the hospital *with* its own medical teams and Arabic speakers, so it can help people. BBC reports the IDF is *targeting* medical teams and Arabic speakers. That’s not a coincidence.”
Good god, this is blood libel from the BBC.
