Monday, October 05, 2026

UN’s Albanese Dismisses Israel’s Claims Regarding Martyred Journalists

According to Saednews, Francesca Albanese responded on X after the Israeli military said an investigation had concluded that individuals who identified themselves as journalists were, in fact, terrorists.

Albanese said there was “zero” evidence supporting Israel’s claim that the journalists had participated in military activities and said she would soon release a report addressing the issue.

“As Western media starts its due diligence, Apartheid Israel escalates disinformation. The army has even a ‘legitimization cell’ fabricating stories to justify genocide. My next report exposes it all,” she wrote.
