On Wednesday, the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights published a report alleging that Israeli forces carried out a mass execution of civilians in Northern Gaza, separating 11 men from their families and summarily shooting them.

Note:

I swapped the original article at the request of a mod to from a source deemed more reliable, but to avoid confusion when reading the comment section prior to this edit, here is the link to the original article. I chose the Relief Web source listed by some who commented. Cheers!

    Basically one mod first said they will keep it since it’s factual, then another removed it for reports but put it back up after I spoke to them, and lastly I was asked to switch the link all together.

    I guess some people are sending out lots of reports on this even though:

    (1) the article was factual (2) the MBFC rating is acceptable (3) The article links to the report it reports on

    Which makes me just want to shrug my shoulders…

      Political forums often have this cynical undercurrent of concern trolling where the aim is to limit the breadth of sources discussed. No easier way to ‘win’ an argument than illegitimately limiting the facts in play in your favour.

      Yeah, I don’t like removing posts for political reasons. On lemmy.ml’s news community we try to allow for a wider range of sources.
