Palestinian children die in blast

That BBC headline is better than their usual "Israel kills Palestinian children".

"Three Palestinian children have been killed after an Israeli tank shell hit northern Gaza, Palestinian doctors say.

Israel's military confirmed it launched an attack, saying it had targeted people setting up a rocket launcher. "

At least they put in the fact that Israel was defending itself. However, the BBC does fail to mention this.

"Palestinian rocket teams have been known to send young children to retrieve rocket launchers after the projectiles are fired, the IDF said in a statement, adding: "In light of the reports, it seems likely that this was the case here."

Update

Likewise, the Telegraph fails to mention it.

Update

The Washington Post has even more, including this.

"A member of the Abu Ghazallah family who witnessed the airstrike said a rocket launcher was near the area where the children were playing. The relative, who declined to be named for fear of reprisal, said the launcher belonged to Islamic Jihad, an armed movement responsible for much of the rocket fire into Israel.

"I hold the Islamic Jihad responsible for the killing of these children," the relative said."

You won't see that on the BBC.
