The BBC has paid more than £400,000 to a Jewish producer who said she was the victim of antisemitism while employed at the corporation.

Lucie Kon, a former commissioning editor for the BBC’s Storyville documentary strand, alleged a colleague told her Zionists were “evil” in the wake of the October 7 Hamas attacks.
