The BBC ignores the funeral of 31 Yemeni journalists killed in a targeted strike by Israel - so much for press freedom

What is this headline trying to insinuate? The BBC does loads of Israel coverage on the shit they’re doing.
I think the article is pretty clear.
The BBC did mention the murder of the journalists last week – kind of. In a single article on its news site, the BBC said that “At least 35 people were killed in Israeli air strikes” and threw in that two newspaper offices “were hit.” It’s almost as if it just happened spontaneously or was incidental – if it happened at all, because it was only “the Houthis’ military spokesman” who said it:
the Houthis’ military spokesman said the targets were civilian, adding that journalists and passersby were killed when the offices of two newspapers were hit.
No mention of the clearly targeted strikes then or since.
