News Brief

(IsraelNN.com) The Reuters News Agency informed readers around the world Wednesday night of the IDF strike on a rocket launching cell that killed three children but altered an IDF statement on the incident. After stating that the children were "spotted near rocket launchers," Reuters quoted the IDF's "sorrow for the use the terror organizations make of the active participation of teenagers in terror attacks." The IDF also was quoted that "more than 90 rockets fired by Palestinian militants in Gaza in the past month landed in Israel."
 
The report failed to include the IDF's description of the "cynical" use of children by terrorists. It also failed to mention that "close to 300 Kassam rockets and mortar shells were launched at Israel" from Gaza in the last month."
