The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has again come under fire for its coverage of Israel's war against Hamas. This time, its translators falsely implied that a released Palestinian prisoner expressed support for Hamas, noticed Respond Crisis Translation, a media accuracy watchdog.
The BBC translation subtitles read: "They imprisoned us for a month. As winter came, they cut off the electricity. We almost died from the cold weather, and no one helped us. Only Hamas cared. Those who felt our suffering, I thank them very much." Respond Crisis Translation's translators stated that the woman in the video did not mention the terrorist organization.
