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 Israeli military carried out several strikes across the Gaza Strip on Monday. According to a center right source, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) killed five Hamas terrorists, including a military commander from the Gaza City Brigade named Ahmed al Batech Abu Osama, who was reportedly killed in a strike on his vehicle. Other targets were located in Deir al Balah, Daraj al Tuffah, and Gaza City near Shifa Hospital, while one individual was killed inside a tent in Khan Yunis.

The reporting on these events differs significantly in framing. A center left source described the event as an attack targeting a Gaza displacement camp. In contrast, a center right source framed the activity as a counterterrorism operation based on intelligence from the Shin Bet and Military Intelligence Directorate, aimed at officials rebuilding Hamas military capabilities and those involved in the October 7 attacks.
