Looking at the two big news publishers in my country. One isn't reporting about the current bombings at all, while the other one is phrasing their words mostly anti-Palestinian.

Is there some neutral coverage I can keep up to? Where do you guys get your info from?

Not a great idea to try. It's theoretically possible but fraught with peril. Instead, it's much more feasible to pick two news sources, one pro-whatever and one against, and check both.

There's aggregators like (our sponsor,) ground news (!) that let you sort by stance and affiliation, that can make it more convenient.

If you must go with a shortcut, pick a country that is interested in the conflict, but not particularly on one side or the other, and read how its being reported there. India for instance, has been fairly neutral on this conflict, to the dismay of both sides, as they have economic ties to both Israel and the Arab world. They're being critical of more or less everyone, and especially the British. lol Still not unbiased though, y'know?

So, it's better to just check both sides regularly.
