CNN's Christiane Amanpour apologized for comparing Israeli hostages' treatment to Palestinians in Gaza, calling it insensitive and inaccurate.
CNN anchor Christiane Amanpour apologized for saying Israeli hostages held by Hamas were “probably” treated better than Palestinians in Gaza, calling the remark insensitive and inaccurate.
The comment, made during a live broadcast following the release of 20 hostages in a Trump-brokered ceasefire deal, drew backlash from political figures and viewers who said it minimized the hostages’ suffering.
Amanpour later clarified she regretted the comparison, emphasizing the severe abuse hostages endured, including starvation, forced labor, and psychological torture.
She acknowledged the trauma of both hostages and Gaza civilians, reaffirming her commitment to balanced reporting.
The apology comes amid ongoing scrutiny of her past coverage of Israel.
