50 years to the day

Gaza and Israel were about to reach a ceasefire agreement. Then twenty-four Western countries demanded that Israel implement an immediate unilateral ceasefire. Hamas, welcoming and emboldened by so much support, backed away from terms it had already agreed to. Yet another example of Western Palestinian activists & Western media compelling politicians into prolonging the war.

Gazans now routinely protest against international media & reporters for refusing to cover any Palestinian criticism of Hamas and for their pro-Hamas coverage. The BBC even had to pull its documentary "Gaza: How To Survive a Warzone" from its streaming service and decided not to broadcast another documentary, "Gaza: Doctors Under Attack" because the production company was controlled by Hamas. The documentary was even narrated by the son of a Hamas government official

What is a good low-bias news source these days on this topic?

The German DW news has a English language version that I think is decent.

The NYTimes coverage is focused on putting out one story and, unthinkably, its truth and accuracy are not the drivers of what it writes. That’s because accurate reports would not sell nearly as well as its smears.

Take note of the qualified headline: “No proof Hamas routinely stole UN aid.” Hamas steals aid. There’s a reason NYT worded it that way. Because it's not in dispute Hamas steals aid. There's video of Hamas stealing aid and there's multiple videos of Hamas shooting Palestinians at UN aid sites. When Hamas isn't stealing aid entirely, Hamas taxes aid which is resold in markets. Hamas even posts videos of themselves feasting on aid.

Also note of the deliberate subheading accusing Israel of causing starvation in Gaza while burying the fact that over the past couple of months the UN deliberately fails to collect and distribute truckloads of aid. The UN repeatedly went days at a time without collecting any aid at all. This past week alone the UN held back 950 trucks filled with the humanitarian aid needed to alleviate the suffering of Gazans. Earlier this week the IDF showed dozens of international journalists, including journalists representing the NYT, large parking lots filled with aid inside Gaza that the UN was refusing to collect:



The UN has since started collecting aid again after the public shaming. The IDF also sent the NYT proof showing how Hamas systematically exploits humanitarian aid to fund its terrorist activities, which the article acknowledges towards the end. And contrary to the article's initial framing, since May, there has been no limits or restrictions on the number of humanitarian aid trucks that can enter Gaza. The biggest restriction over the past several months has been the UN refusing to collect & distribute aid inside Gaza.
