BBC rejects incorrect White House claims on Gaza coverage"The claim the BBC took down a story after reviewing footage is completely wrong. The BBC has rejected incorrect White House criticism of its Gaza coverage, describing a claim that it had taken down a story as "completely wrong". Civilian witnesses, NGOs, and health officials said people were shot at while waiting for food at an aid distribution point. The White House press secretary also accused the BBC of removing a story because it "couldn't find any evidence of anything" - referring to a report by BBC Verify examining a viral video. International journalists are not currently allowed into Gaza and we would welcome the support of the White House in our call for immediate access," the BBC's statement added.
