“He stated there’s a lot of Palestinian kids being killed further south by Israeli forces,” Mr Sacerdoti's complaint said.
“This is completely incorrect and is made up. This was irrelevant to the conversation on Syria… and also actually completely false.”
The BBC's head of executive coplaints, Fraser Steel, said he would be upholding part of the complaint.
“The BBC’s guidelines require that output is ‘well sourced’ and ‘based on sound evidence’,” he said in his response to Mr Sacerdoti.
“In the absence of any evidence to support the reference to ‘lots’ of children being killed at the time of transmission, it seems to us to have risked misleading audiences on a material point.
“We therefore propose to uphold this part of your complaint.”
