An internal memo by Michael Prescott, a former external adviser to the BBC’s Editorial Guidelines and Standards Committee, alleges that BBC Arabic gave disproportionate weight to unverified anti‑Israel claims during the Gaza war. The BBC says it takes such feedback seriously, as MPs demand answers on editorial standards.
New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani broke his silence on the release of the final 20 living Israeli hostages from Gaza, calling it a glimmer of hope amid a ceasefire. His statement criticized U.S. funding of the conflict but omitted mention of Hamas or President Trump. The remarks followed backlash from opponents over his initial silence.
