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.

An Israeli airstrike on a vehicle in the Tel Al-Hawa neighborhood of Gaza City on Sunday killed at least two Palestinians and wounded 13 others, according to medical staff. Footage from the scene showed the targeted vehicle mangled and gutted. Local health officials have appealed to the public for information to help identify the deceased.

The Israel Defense Forces stated that the strike targeted Hamas members. One center-leaning source specified that the targets were two Hamas engineers involved in weapons production who acted to advance attacks and rebuild the organization. Other sources noted that the military provided no further details.

Outlets with center-left and center-right leans provided different contexts for the event. A center-left source framed the strike as part of a persistent Israeli attack on the besieged territory despite a United States brokered ceasefire, citing health authority figures of over 1,300 Palestinians killed since that truce began. A center-right source also mentioned that attacks continue despite the October ceasefire and cited the 1,300 death toll. Meanwhile, a center-right source included additional reporting that the IDF began a wave of strikes in southern Lebanon on Saturday, warning residents in northern Israel to expect aircraft activity.
