However, they have expressed uncertainty regarding the photographers they work with, raising questions about how\u2062 these photographers were aware\u2064 of the surprise attack.<\/p>\n<p>CNN has officially cut\u200b ties with Hassan\u200c Eslaiah, one of the photographers highlighted by Honest Reporting, who was\u2064 not only found to\u200b be with terrorists on October\u2063 7 but also had a close relationship with the terrorist group.<\/p>\n<p>The Associated Press, \u2062which has also published photos from Eslaiah, claims to have had no knowledge of the attacks \u200dbefore they occurred.

One notable incident involved the media falsely blaming Israel\u200b for a hospital explosion\u2063 caused by the\u200b terrorists, leading to \u2063widespread protests against the Jewish state and its people.<\/p>\n<p>Eslaiah, the\u2064 photographer highlighted by Honest Reporting,\u2062 has been\u200c shown to have a close relationship with terrorist groups in\u2063 Gaza.

They have since launched an internal investigation to uncover how \u200ctheir photographers might have\u200c been involved with Hamas militants.
