“More than 300 of Gaza’s health workers are in Israeli detention, the enclave’s health ministry says, while others have been detained for a time and then released. And according to the World Health Organization, 500 have been killed in the war, out of a prewar total of about 20,000.“

This is not journalism - it's propaganda. Deliberate or not, doesn't really matter, does it?
