A BBC report on Palestinian deaths near a U.S.-backed Israeli aid center in Gaza drew criticism from the White House, which accused the broadcaster of echoing Hamas claims. The BBC strongly defended its reporting, stating no article was removed and that it cited all sources transparently. The controversy reflects growing tensions over media narratives in Gaza, where recent Israeli strikes have killed nearly 100 people. Meanwhile, the U.S. vetoed a UN ceasefire proposal, further jeopardizing humanitarian aid efforts in the war-torn region.
