The BBC has refuted White House claims regarding its Gaza coverage, stating that it did not retract any stories and stands by its reporting. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt accused the BBC of relying on Hamas for casualty figures and criticized its adjustments to the reported numbers, which the BBC clarified were standard practice as new information emerged. The BBC emphasized the challenges of reporting in Gaza due to restrictions on journalists and called for support from the White House for access to the region, highlighting the ongoing conflict and significant casualties since October 7, 2023.
