BBC News said on Thursday that one of its reporters was “wrong” to speculate that Al Ahli Hospital in Gaza City was likely bombed by Israel.

The statement came after the Israel’s President Isaac Herzog accused media outlets which cited the Hamas claim of “broadcasting a 21st century blood libel around the globe.”
