Some independent journalists in Ukraine have encountered harassment through state agencies.

Israel claimed that the al-Shifa hospital was deeply integrated with HAMAS tunnels and that they were used for combat operations. The Washington Post found a tunnel and an entrance, but no evidence it was used for combat, or that it was designed to be of use for combat.

*UK transgender actors appeal to be cast in non-trans roles.* Discrimination is in general a bad thing. If in general it gives good results to cast actors without discriminating between cis and trans, it is better not to discriminate.

The hard part is judging whether a trans actor can do a good job of playing a cis role, and likewise whether a cis actor can do a good job of playing a trans role. Whether actor A plays role R well is a question that is inherently subjective -- so how can you tell if you are giving way to discrimination?
