- A hatched block means the outlet is affiliated with, or controlled by, a state.
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.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) killed a Palestinian man on Friday after he allegedly attempted to stab a soldier with a knife during an operation in the Jenin area of the West Bank. The IDF reported that no soldiers were injured in the incident. One report indicated that the event occurred while soldiers from the 890th Paratroopers Battalion were attempting to conduct an arrest at the man's home.
Outlets with a center right lean framed the deceased man as a terrorist. In contrast, a left leaning outlet described him as a Palestinian man.
Other reports from the region noted that a 14 year old Palestinian boy was wounded by gunfire in the chest during an IDF incursion in Jenin. Additionally, the Palestinian Red Crescent reported that Israeli settler militias injured at least six Palestinians near Ramallah on Thursday. Meanwhile, the Israeli government has announced a new tender for 1,234 housing units under the E1 project, a plan that critics and the Prime Minister of Malaysia argue would divide the West Bank and undermine the possibility of a contiguous Palestinian state.
How each side framed it
