World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Did the author spoke with Bahaa directly, or what is the primary source on this?
I just noticed nowhere in the article did they quote the IDF. Are these writers stupid? They should learn from New York Times.
They're so ridiculous.
"Guys, it doesn't count as breaking the ceasefire, because it was a Hamas militant!"
I guess that's a self report. To them, ceasefire means "we can only target Hamas militants." As if that's not what they should have only been doing from the start.
Ceasefire means you stop firing on everyone. That includes Hamas.
What? The article reads like the author talk to Bahaa in person, but this isn't clearly stated as it is common with first person accounts. So i wondered who actually talk to him.
Unclear from the article but the story of Bahaa has appeared in a other news. This article is a compilation. It also references other cases. Not sure why you care if TruthOut spoke to him directly.
There's tonnes of articles from other mainstream media which similarly reference other articles and I never see any questions about that. Whenever someone starts questioning sources on Palestine articles I am sceptical of their intentions.
According to automatically translated titles in search results (auto subs in video is broken for me), this is the source: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/reMYxWBELxM
The reporting outlets should reference this, this is bad style and opens up opportunity to flag these stories as falsified anecdotes by propagandists.
There's only one user in this thread insinuating the sort.
Not really, nobody checks sources anyway. And if you do want to do that you can just open Google
Quoting a source is done if you don't want to take personal responsibility to state something as a fact. But TruthOut has no problem using their reputation to certify the stories of Palestinians.
As long as Israel isn't letting journalists into Gaza, there is no need to verify anything negative about Israel.
