BBC phraseeology

I note the BBC's headline for the story that

'A British aid worker who was among 10 people killed by gunmen in a remote part of north-east Afghanistan is named as Dr Karen Woo.'

'Shot UK medical worker identified'
'SHOT' that's interesting, I seem to remember the BBC using the word 'killed' or 'murdered' for people killed by Israel, but for those killed by the Taliban,, 'shot'. My patience with the biased scum at the BBC is nearing an end.
