Muhammad al-Qiq is a Palestinian journalist known for hunger strikes while held in Israeli administrative detention. Through 2020 the opening quoted the Associated Press reporting that "Israel's Shin Bet security service says al-Qeq is involved in terrorism activities linked to the militant Hamas movement." Today's opening describes him only as a journalist and hunger striker, with no mention of the Shin Bet allegation, though the word survives once in the body. A reader today does not learn that Israeli security services said al-Qiq was tied to Hamas terror activity.
