When Houthis fired hundreds of ballistic missile attacks at Israel, the news agency cited “dozens.” When hundreds of Hamas rockets sent more than one million Israelis running for shelters, Reuters underreported “thousands” sought shelter.
And in September 2024, when at least 38 Israelis had been killed in terror attacks in the West Bank and Jerusalem since Oct. 8, 2023, Reuters lowballed 22.
The latest instance of anti-Israel terror subjected to Reuters’ minimizing treatment appears in a July 30, 2025 article updated Feb. 9, (“What is the two-state solution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict“). The background article grossly understates the number of Israelis killed in Hamas suicide attacks, erring: “Hamas, an Islamist movement, killed scores of Israelis in suicide attacks.” In fact, as earlier Reuters reporting has indicated, Hamas has killed hundreds — not scores — of Israelis.
