On 25 August 2025, Israeli forces bombed Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, killing five journalists and wounding others in broad daylight and in front of the cameras. As always, global media agencies, including AP and the BBC at the time, uncritically platformed Israel's narrative justifying the crime and burying the truth. Institutional distancingWhile relaying the Nasser Hospital attack, AP presented Mariam Abu Daqqa as a journalist who "freelanced for AP". Canadian photojournalist Valerie Zink announced her resignation from Reuters following the Nasser Hospital attack, after eight years working with them, due to what she called the agency's "betrayal of journalists".
