The UN special rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territory, Francesca Albanese, has again questioned the way some media outlets are covering Israel’s war on Gaza.

“Mainstream western media: any sense of journalism ethics left in your veins?” she wrote in a post on X.

Albanese was responding to a post suggesting Israel’s Haaretz newspaper is covering the “brutality” of the war in a way that Western media outlets are not.
