The same Israeli soldier has posted video clips showing soldiers arresting dozens of men, women and children who were stripped, blindfolded and handcuffed in areas across Gaza.

    Anyone else noticing Middle East Monitor never lists author names?

    Also, large portions of their articles seem to be literal copy>paste from major outlets such as Reuters.

    One example:

    https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/doctors-gaza-hospital-have-prioritise-patients-most-likely-survive-2024-02-06/

      Staff and equipment are in such short supply in Gaza’s European Hospital that medical teams are having to make agonising decisions about whom to accept, doctors said, leaving many patients with severe life-threatening injuries untreated, Reuters reports.

      Reuters attribution guidelines require you to attribute it to Reuters not their journalist.

      I find it interesting how dedicated you are to trying to attack the source rather than the contents.

        Reuters attribution guidelines clearly don’t allow for copying the whole article word for word. That’s not the only paragraph…

        Edit: To further clarify, MEMO doesn’t list who wrote any of their own articles… I suspect it’s because they are all either anonymous with little fact checking and/or written by generative AI.

          Yes they do.

          MEMO operates as a non-profit Media Monitor, that means they republish news from other sources. Both MEMO and Reuters operate out of the UK and if MEMO were illegally copying their content, they would have been shut-down by now.

          Frankly you are are obsessed with trying to discredit a perfectly valid organisation just because they have a pro-Palestinian bias instead of a Pro-Israeli. They have done nothing wrong.
