Breaking: Hostage abducted by Hamas on October 7th has been "rescued" by the Israeli military. The rescued hostage, Kaid Farhan Al-Qadi, from Rahat, "was rescued by Shayetet 13, the 401st Brigade, Yahalom, and ISA forces under the command of the 162nd Division in a complex operation in the southern Gaza Strip." He is in stable condition.

And not introduce the word as emanating from his own bias.
It comes across exactly the opposite unfortunately.
Probably just an unintended consequence of overthinking his journalistic stance on how to present the story.
