Political lean describes where an outlet sits within the politics of its own country. It is never a position on a single global scale.

Political lean is comparable inside one country and not across them, which is why the bar groups by country first. Publicly funded broadcasters are not marked as state-linked.

The owner of each outlet is listed as a matter of record, not as a judgement about the outlet.

Every source for this story reports from Israel.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) intercepted a suspicious aerial target on Wednesday morning that likely crossed from Lebanon into Israeli territory. Sirens were activated in several areas of northern Israel during the incident. The military reported that no casualties occurred and that the event is currently under review. A center right outlet reported that Hezbollah run Al Manar TV claimed the IDF subsequently struck the village of Rumman in southern Lebanon, though the IDF had not corroborated those reports at the time of writing.
