Abstract
Media is a powerful tool for forming public opinion about geopolitical issues. The use of framing techniques in news articles is an important part of this process. However, research on the linguistic representation of news articles on Israel-Hamas war is limited. This study aimed to examine the linguistic representation and uncover underlying meanings within news articles about the Israel-Hamas war by examining the framing techniques employed by media outlets and their morphosemantic and syntactic features. The results of this research not only enhance the comprehension of how conflict is portrayed in media but also impact language instruction and media literacy education. This study adds to a wider conversation about how language influences our comprehension of worldwide conflicts and emphasizes the need for analyzing media communication critically. This research has the potential to serve as a foundation for future research which makes it easier for others to build on this work and continue advancing understanding of how media platforms work. Moreover, this research holds value for educational institutions, particularly those offering linguistics, journalism and media-related courses.
