After the tragic event of the shooting that resulted in the death of veteran Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh in Jenin earlier this month, there have been many opinion articles and comments on the social media stating false news and incorrect facts.
Some, like the one by Mr Hassan Malik in The Standard on May 26, reveal their blunt ignorance of the region as they maliciously twist facts in a bid to support anti-Israeli narratives. The public has a right to be presented with the truth instead of being fed with lies and propaganda.
