Al Jazeera reliability

[edit]

Hey Gianluigi02, why do you think Al Jazeera's "live coverage" is better to reference the fact of Israel launching 300+ airstrikes? I'm asking, because you removed the Israeli militaries statement, sourcing that fact, and replaced it with Al Jazeera's live blog with the reasoning "live coverage". So I am just trying to figure out how live coverage from a partisan source (see WP:ALJAZEERA on WP:RSP) is a better source than the Israeli military.
