The BBC has a special responsibility to its UK and international audiences when reporting conflict. At such times, large numbers of people across the world access our services for accurate news and information. We must ensure they can be confident we are telling them the truth. They also expect us to help them make sense of events by providing context and impartial analysis and by offering a wide range of views and opinions.
