CNN anchor Christiane Amanpour said Monday she regretted claiming Hamas had “probably” treated Israeli hostages held in Gaza better than the average Gazan while trying to articulate the devastation the region faces from the two-year-long conflict.
Amanpour, CNN’s chief international anchor, released a lengthy statement after drawing criticism on social media after explaining how living hostages, who were freed Monday, survived a different experience from the average person living in Gaza because they were used as leverage.
