The BBC’s Geneva correspondent published a report amplifying a UN official’s extreme accusations against Israel, without mentioning the October 7 massacre or the hostages still held by Hamas. CAMERA UK unpacks the omissions, distortions, and misleading portrayal of Francesca Albanese’s qualifications.
Where is the line between journalism and propaganda? Reuters blurs it in its June 10 article, “Israel commits 'extermination' in Gaza by killing in schools, UN experts say,” by Francois Murphy, which uncritically amplifies the United Nations’s Commission of Inquiry’s (COI) flawed and biased claims of Israeli war crimes.
When a senior UN official told the BBC that thousands of babies would die in two days, the claim quickly spread across the global media — which would be understandable, if it weren’t abjectly false.
Which armed terror operative does the United Nations mischaracterize as a civilian? All of them. Every single senior Hamas terror leader, Islamic Jihad gunman, and Aqsa Martyrs Brigades IED thrower killed in action since 2008.

VOA corrects a headline which had miscast a newly-released misleading and partial UN figure for women and children killed in Gaza (nearly 70 percent of the limited "verified" pool) as relating to the totality of fatalities during the entire war.
The IDF said over 450 UNRWA staffers are military operatives in terror organizations. Israel's Foreign Ministry said more than 2000 UNRWA employees belong to terror groups. But Reuters said Israel cited "a few."
Merriam-Webster defines the term “kangaroo court” as “a mock court in which the principles of law and justice are disregarded or perverted.” There is no more apt term for the United Nations’s Commission of Inquiry (COI) against Israel, which has long dispensed with any pretense of being fair, impartial, or objective. So why did CNN’s Niamh Kennedy and Muhammad Darwish treat the COI as if its conclusions carried any respectability?
