Outrage after Sky News describes Israeli soldiers as 'teenage victims'

Headline referred to Israeli soldiers as teenage victims while minimising killing of Palestinians in an Israeli strike on a school.

Sky News has provoked outrage online after publishing a headline on Monday saying "Israel names teenage soldiers killed in Hezbollah attack - as '23 die' in Gaza school strike". The headline refers to the soldiers as teenagers and says they were killed by Hezbollah. By contrast, it puts Palestinian deaths in quotation marks and does not clarify that the school strike was carried out by the Israeli military. The headline was still up at 3pm British time, while the story appeared on Sky News' X account with a description of the soldiers as "teenage victims" - not referencing that they were soldiers. But the headline has since been changed to, "Israel names soldiers killed in Hezbollah drone attack - as 23 killed in Gaza school strike", following outrage online. Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for the drone attack on a military base in northern Israel which killed at least four soldiers and wounded scores of others. The group said it fired a “swarm of drones” on a base in Binyamina, Israel, belonging to the Israeli army’s Golani Brigade. On Sunday evening, a Sky News segment over three minutes long was widely criticised for not mentioning that the attack was on a military base.
