Palestinian media typically celebrates terror attacks, claiming that the victims are all soldiers. That is a little more difficult when the victim is an elderly lady stabbed multiple times.
So they do everything they can to hide that fact.
Palestine Information Center mentions it was a woman, calling her a "settler."
Safa just says "Israeli woman," basing it on Israeli reports and avoiding saying her age.
The official Wafa news agency simply avoids mentioning the story altogether.
Arabi21 links to the Hebrew Maariv article whose headline emphasizes that she was an 83 year old woman, but in Arabic refers to her merely as a "settler" - and then offers a "quote" from "occupation forces" that say "What we can confirm is that a Palestinian suspect stabbed a settler, and Israeli forces are searching the area to rule out the presence of other perpetrators."
Apparently, the Palestinian algorithm automatically changes any mention of an Israeli "citizen" to "settler."
Palestinian news site Raya also calls the woman a "settler," and adds details:
A member of the medical team who arrived at the scene of the operation said, “We received a report of a woman being stabbed. We quickly arrived at the scene and saw the woman lying on the ground, unconscious, suffering from a stab wound to her body. We provided her with initial medical treatment, which included stopping the bleeding, while transferring her to the hospital, where she is in critical condition.”This was a combination of two quotes, specifically edited to remove any hint of the victim as an elderly lady. Here was how the MDA reported it. Note what Raya specifically excluded.
MDA Emergency Medical Technician Elon Boaron, who was the first to arrive on the scene, stated:"I was near the incident location when the call came in. I arrived quickly and saw an elderly woman lying unconscious on the sidewalk with stab wounds. Together with additional forces that arrived, we performed resuscitation efforts and evacuated her to the hospital while continuing life-saving treatment. During the treatment, security personnel neutralized the assailant near the scene. It is a shocking event."MDA Paramedic Idan Shina added:"We received a report about a woman injured in a stabbing. When we arrived at the scene, we saw the woman lying near a retirement home, unconscious and suffering from stab wounds. We provided initial life-saving treatment, but her condition was critical."
Palestinian media are doing everything they can to avoid any Arab sympathizing with a Jewish victim of terror or getting angry at a "heroic" terrorist.
Notice also that Palestinian media, across the board, call every Israeli a "settler" no matter where they live.
If they go to such lengths to avoid reporting facts, why should anyone believe anything they ever say?
