"Stories via @jondonnisonbbc"


David (in the comments section of the previous post) has grabbed the embed code for a truly intriguing tweet:


Now, as you'll see if you click on their Twitter feed, Team Palestina are activists:


They have a remarkably busy Twitter feed which has been going since 2010 and which has already pumped out 135,000+ tweets, all promoting the Palestinian cause and denouncing Israel. 

And yet there's a tweet from their Twitter account promoting themselves which adds the words: "Stories via @jondonnisonbbc".

What on earth does that mean?


P.S. It's not the first time this has happened:


It could, come to think of it, simply mean that that day's 'Daily News' cited a BBC piece by Jon Donnison - though given that JonDon hasn't been on reporting duties in Gaza since 2014 what exactly would they be citing? His tweets?
