What changed

The report reproduces the union's statement on the memorial music video «من كان يا مكان»: it is a symbolic tribute, not an exhaustive biographical record. The union acknowledged distress among some families whose relatives were omitted and announced a new version with additional figures.

RESEARCH NOTE

The date is the report's publication date; the union's original post date was not independently checked. AI use is the journalist's description; the video was not watched. Criticism of omissions is not rejection of AI, and family permission or delivery of the revised version cannot be assumed.

Editorial research question

Editorial interpretation: the same professional organisation can pursue AI-related harms while supporting commemorative image-making. Authorisation, portrayal and omitted figures must be distinguished in each source.

This is an editorial interpretation or question, separate from factual statements.
