The article never says the strike took place during a declared ceasefire in Gaza. It tags the item 'Swords of Iron' and describes an 'operational encounter', so a reader believes this was a battlefield action in active fighting rather than a lethal strike carried out under a ceasefire. The Jerusalem Post's report of the same announcement, and this outlet's own report the day before, both refer to the ceasefire.
Shortly afterward, an aircraft struck the shaft and the terrorists. Hits on the terrorists were identified. Following the strike, secondary explosions were identified, indicating the presence of weapons inside the shaft. Found a mistake? Contact us A A
Israel National News repeats an Israeli military account of an air strike in Khan Yunis as its own reporting, with no attribution anywhere. It calls the three people struck terrorists in its own voice on that account alone, and it states the army's inference that weapons were in the shaft as fact. It also does not mention that the strike came during a declared ceasefire.
Labels people on one side's word
Severe
“IDF strikes terrorists emerging from tunnel”
Why this matters
The headline calls the three people struck 'terrorists' in the outlet's own voice, with no attribution to anyone.
The impression it gives
That it is established fact that the people hit were terrorists.
The context
The only source for the label is the Israeli military's own announcement. The Jerusalem Post reports it as what 'the IDF stated'. The article offers no names, no affiliation and no independent basis.
The army said secondary explosions followed the strike, which it said showed weapons were inside the shaft.
