The BBC took one full month to acknowledge that its claim that Israel is responsible for vaccinating Palestinians against Covid-19 is mistaken.
The UK paper the Jewish Chronicle reported Wednesday that, responding to complaints stemming from an earlier interview, the BBC admitted in a statement that the claim is false, saying, "We suggested that under the Oslo Accords, Palestinian healthcare is ultimately the responsibility of the Israeli government".
"Although there is a wider dispute over the issue, the Accords, which Israel signed with the Palestine Liberation Organization, give the Palestine Authority oversight of public health under the principles of self-determination", the network said.
