> This article has been updated to include information about Mohammed Zakaria al-Mutawaq, a child in Gaza suffering from severe malnutrition. After publication of the article, The Times learned from his doctor that Mohammed also had pre-existing health problems.
So a child starving to death also had "pre-existing health problems". What are they? Do they explain why he's severely malnourished? Are they actually relevant at all, or is this just a bullshit qualification meant to undermine any errant sympathy for a starving Palestinian boy? If only there were a journalist around to tell us!
This is the problem with the editors here using weasel phrasing like "pre-existing health problems" while at the same time still strongly implying that this child's condition is caused by starvation. In fact he suffers from cerebral palsy, and other photos from the same photoshoot clearly show his apparently healthy brother and mother present at the same time.

The issue here is, If ( media and others ) they are prepared to use incorrect images and information that child is the way they are - because of starvation is - what else are they prepared to "bend the truth" or propagate wrong information on ???.
(Many other media used this story - so it ashows how media just copies information without it seems any verification ....)
Israel won't let journalists into Gaza. Until that ends and reporting on the genocide and ethnic cleansing is allowed to be accurately reported your comment is at best ironic and at worst defending an obvious genocide.
OBSERVATION - War fighting in suburban areas normally has a high civilian death rate. I do not know how it goes to the rate in Gaza ie Low/comparable/high
There is also , very unfortunate to say accidents . Not making a excuse - just look at previous wars. Example involving US was - collateral murder
Why did Israel ever give warnings for civilians to leave areas , if they set on deliberate genocide?
OBSERVATION - dropping 500lb bombs isn't fighting it's annihilating indiscriminately and without any care as to who is killed knowing full well most will be utterly innocent. There is no excuse for this. It it mass state sponsored murder and maiming.
