The BBC has come under fire for a report on the release of Palestinian prisoners that omitted key details about one man's alleged role in a deadly suicide bombing that killed four.
The corporation aired a segment featuring the family of Murad Muhammad Ridha Ahmad Abu al-Rub - without initially noting his connection to the 2006 Kedumim attack, according to critics.
Reporters covering the mass release of nearly 2,000 prisoners led by Israel described the detainees as being greeted as 'heroes' upon their return.
A video clip published on the BBC homepage showed the sister of al-Rub, Aida, waiting anxiously for her brother's name to appear on the release list.
Israeli research organisation Palestinian Media Watch says al-Rub was convicted and jailed for his part in the 2006 Kedumim suicide bombing, which claimed the lives of four Israelis.
Introducing the segment, BBC Middle East correspondent Lucy Williamson said: 'Aida has waited 20 years for her brother Murad to be released from Israeli jail.'
In tears, Aida said: 'I don't know what he looks like.'
Williamson went on: 'Dozens of prisoners emerged from Red Cross buses as fathers, brothers and sons - carried in as national heroes. But Murad wasn't among them.'
The one-minute piece then cut to footage of Aida sobbing and saying: 'They kidnapped my brother.'
Williamson concluded: 'By comparing three different lists, we discovered Murad's name, once slated for release, was yesterday moved to a list of deportees.'
The same video appeared on the BBCs TikTok page, with the caption: 'Families waited for detainees to be released in the occupied West Bank on Monday, as part of the Gaza ceasefire.
'We met Aida Abu Rob waiting for her brother Murad, sentenced to four life sentences in 2006.'
The broadcaster insisted last night that viewers were made aware of the man's conviction.
Last night, a BBC spokesperson told The Sun: 'It was made clear the prisoner had been serving four life sentences.'
Around 250 of the released prisoners had been serving life sentences, many for deadly terror attacks.
Among them was Ahmed Mahmed Jameel Shahada, who raped and murdered a 13-year-old boy in 1989.
Critics accused the BBC of downplaying the crimes of convicted terrorists and using language that risked portraying them as victims or heroes.
The Daily Mail has approached the BBC for comment.
