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.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Tuesday that Israel will not withdraw from its current positions in Gaza until Hamas is completely disarmed. This statement follows a peace deal announced last week by US President Donald Trump and his Board of Peace, which called for Hamas to disarm and for Israel to halt strikes and begin withdrawing from approximately 60 percent of the Gaza Strip. Netanyahu stated in a video that the US administration sent a draft that Israel did not agree to and that the public version did not reflect Israel's positions.

The Board of Peace later issued a statement on X clarifying that Israeli withdrawal beyond the Yellow Line will only occur once the decommissioning of weapons is complete. This adjustment follows a meeting on Monday between Netanyahu and Nickolay Mladenov, the high representative for Gaza under the Board of Peace. While Hamas has stated it is adhering to the agreed upon implementation of the ceasefire, including the commitment to hand over weapons to a nascent Palestinian governing committee, the sequencing of these events remains a primary point of contention.

Internal Israeli pressure has intensified the standoff, with far right ministers demanding a vote to nullify the deal. Analysts note that Netanyahu faces a difficult re election fight in October, which may limit his flexibility regarding concessions on Hamas. Meanwhile, Qatar has accused the Israeli government of delaying the peace plan, suggesting that recent Israeli bombardments are attempts to derail the agreement. The conflict continues to take a heavy toll, with reports of over 73,000 Palestinians killed in Gaza and 1,200 Israelis killed during the October 7 attack.
