  Herzog called for an end to what he described as a "preposterous" narrative that equates Israel's legal system with Hamas's brutality.

Israeli President Isaac Herzog criticized the BBC for what he described as a "false equivalence" between Israeli hostages held by Hamas and Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails. In an interview with Piers Morgan, Herzog highlighted the BBC's reporting which he believes wrongly equates the two groups. He emphasized that the Israeli hostages, including children and elderly, were kidnapped from their homes, while many Palestinian prisoners are detained for security-related offenses. Herzog argued that this comparison is not only misleading but also morally incorrect, pointing out the severe conditions under which the hostages are held compared to the legal proceedings and conditions for Palestinian detainees. He called for the BBC to correct its narrative to reflect the true nature of these situations.
