Pars Today - More than 100 employees of the BBC TV channel, accused it of biased reporting in favor of the Zionist regime in the Gaza war.

According to Pars Today, quoting from IRNA, more than 100 employees of the BBC TV channel, in an open letter accused its Director General, Tim Davie, of coming short of "just and accurate" coverage for Gaza events and carnage of Palestinians.

Writers of this open letter have raised requests, stressing that the BBC, in its reports of Gaza war, should point to the conflicts between Palestinians and the Israeli regime before October 7, 2023, too.

This letter, which has been signed by William Dalrymple, historian, Owen Jones, columnist of daily Guardian, and Rizwana Hamid, Director of the Center for Media Monitoring at Muslim Council of Britain, has also asked the BBC to clearly mention the name of Israel in the articles related to the crimes committed by the Israeli regime and challenge the cabinet members and military of the regime in its interviews.

The letter further reads, "Any TV report, article and radio interview which fails to challenge the Israeli claims will systematically question the human rights of the Palestinians."

The publication of this letter shows the deep gap between the directors and personnel of this media which is affiliated to the British government and royal family.

The main building of this channel in London is among the places in front of which several protest rallies have been held during the past year because of blind support for the fake Zionist regime.
