Summary

Prominent left-leaning Italian weekly L'Espresso is at the centre of a diplomatic storm online, after the Israeli ambassador to Italy slammed its choice of front cover as "manipulative". The magazine titled its latest edition "L'Abuso" or "The Abuse", illustrating the cover with a photo of an armed Israeli settler sneering, whilst pointing his smartphone at a visibly distressed Palestinian woman.
