The New York Times has issued a correction to its Sept. 27 report, “Iranians Brace for Economic Impact of New U.N. Sanctions,” after misstating when the Security Council’s “snapback” measures would take effect.

The paper originally told readers the reimposition was set for Sunday. Its amendment clarifies the sanctions were due Saturday, not Sunday: “An earlier version of this article misstated when sanctions were set to be reimposed on Iran. They were set to take effect on Saturday, not Sunday.”

The Guardian has corrected a key mistake in its reporting on BP’s annual energy outlook, after misquoting figures on future gas demand in a way that risked trivialising the scale of the challenge.

In its 26 September article, “BP suggests net zero will not be met as it raises oil targets,” the paper wrote that natural gas demand could reach 4,806 cubic metres a year in 2050, up from a previous estimate of 4,729 cubic metres. The correct figures, as later acknowledged, were 4,806 billion cubic metres and 4,729 billion cubic metres.

The BBC’s latest Panorama investigation, Gaza: Dying for Food, has been accused of misrepresenting Israeli claims about Hamas diverting humanitarian aid, after relying heavily on UN assurances that no systemic theft has taken place.

The program, which was unable to film inside Gaza itself and instead relied on local Palestinian filmmakers, cited an August report by the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) that alleged famine conditions, a finding Israel has dismissed as “an outright lie”.

Semafor has corrected a recent report on perceptions of safety in the Gulf, after initially mischaracterising the nature of Gallup’s findings.

The original article highlighted Gallup’s latest global survey, which placed five Gulf countries among the world’s top 10 for feeling safe while walking alone at night. The UAE was singled out as a regional outlier where women reported feeling marginally safer than men, though the difference across the Gulf was small.

The Telegraph has issued a significant correction to a June article headlined “Trump official who shut down counter-Russia agency has links to Kremlin”. The story had claimed that Sergei Chernikov — and by extension his niece, Yulia Kirillova — maintained active ties to the Kremlin and to President Vladimir Putin. The paper now concedes this was false.

In reality, neither Chernikov nor Kirillova has any association with the Kremlin or with Putin. Chernikov has lived outside Russia since 2008 and has not returned since 2020. The Telegraph also wrongly described him as a former Deputy Governor of the Nenets region in Siberia, and further alleged he had received a personal note of thanks from Putin during the 2000 election campaign — both claims now acknowledged to be untrue.

The Times has issued a correction after it incorrectly reported that a statue of Queen Elizabeth II would cost up to £46 million and be unveiled next year.

In fact, as the paper clarified, the £46 million figure refers to the overall budget for the memorial site in St James’s Park. The designs for the site are not yet complete and are only due to be finalised next year.

The Telegraph has amended a report that overstated the scale of Britain’s “global talent” visa route for creatives.

An article published on 25 August, headlined “Taxpayer-funded company helps foreign artists secure visas for £100”, initially suggested that 948,000 people had entered the UK on global talent visas by the end of 2024. In fact, as the body of the piece made clear, the figure refers to the total number of legal arrivals to the UK during that period across all visa categories, of which the global talent route is only a small contributor.

Politico has corrected its coverage of Senator Susan Collins’ remarks on President Donald Trump’s sweeping tax and spending package, after initially misstating the number of Republicans who voted against the so-called “megabill.”

The article, published September 15, recounted Collins’ criticism of the legislation’s cuts to Medicaid and rural health care, as well as her defence of ousted CDC director Susan Monarez. But it also asserted the wrong number of Republicans had opposed the bill, requiring an amendment after publication.

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation has issued a correction to its reporting on the September 12 Evergreen High School shooting in Colorado, after initially stating that two students had been killed by the gunman. In fact, the students were injured, not fatally shot.

The original article appeared as part of an online analysis linked to the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. In its first version, the report said the shooter had opened fire on fellow students at Evergreen High, killing two before turning the gun on himself. That account has now been amended to clarify that while two students were targeted, they survived.

The New York Times has amended its reporting on the reburial of World War II victims in Ukraine, after incorrectly placing the location of the mass graves in western Poland. They were in fact in western Ukraine.

In the context of a fraught historical dispute — one that has shaped nationalist narratives in both countries and remains a sensitive diplomatic issue — the difference between western Ukraine and western Poland is far from trivial.

The Financial Times has corrected a significant numerical error in its reporting on France’s political turmoil, acknowledging that 80,000 police officers were deployed for a day of nationwide protests on September 10, not 800,000 as originally stated. The mistake appeared in an article detailing President Emmanuel Macron’s appointment of Sébastien Lecornu as prime minister, following the ousting of François Bayrou in a confidence vote over his austerity program.
