After watchdog's protest, the [[AP]] corrected "Week in Pictures" feature which misidentified outgoing Islamic Jihad rockets launched from Gaza towards Israel as "Israeli airstrikes."<ref>[https://www.camera.org/article/ap-rebrands-islamic-jihad-rocket-attacks-as-israeli-strikes/ AP Rebrands Islamic Jihad Rocket Attacks As Israeli Strikes], ''CAMERA'', Aug 15, 2022.<blockquote>

Internationally, chief fact twisting in reporting seemed to be [[Al Jazeera]] which blamed Israel for the death of children in Jabaliya, without mentioning that it was the result of an errant Islamic Jihad rocket. Even days after this reporting Al Jazeera did not issue an apology. The [[BBC]] and [[CNN]] were desperate to stress that its "Israel claim", but it does not stress 'its "Palestinian" claim' when routinely reporting on deaths, numbers in Gaza.<ref>Emily Schrader, [https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-714215 Int'l media has once again shown its true colors toward Israel - opinion], ''JPost'', Aug 8, 2022.<blockquote>Where Palestinian claims are taken as fact, even when they come from terrorist organizations, Israeli claims – with evidence – are taken with skepticism... Al Jazeera blamed Israel for the death of children in Jabaliya, without mentioning that it was the result of an errant Islamic Jihad rocket...
while both CNN and BBC mentioned the Jabaliya attack within larger articles about the entire operation, both of them reported it as a claim of Israel that's disputed. The BBC article stated that Israel accused PIJ militants of accidentally causing at least some of those deaths, adding that the BBC has not been able to independently verify this claim.

Interestingly, no such disclaimer is mentioned when it comes to the death toll statistics provided by Gaza terrorist groups. Why is that Palestinian claims are taken as fact while Israeli claims that are put forth with transparency and even with evidence are cast in a negative, skeptical light?</blockquote></ref>
