This article originally stated that the new EU legislation on political advertising would see a three-month ban on foreign adverts being imposed ahead of the June European Parliament elections with the remainder of its provisions coming into force in 2025. This was incorrect. New rules on cross-border political advertising will come into force ahead of the elections. The ban on foreign adverts will come into force in 2025.

The story EU 'unfazed' by antisemitic billboards despite Gaza war was changed to say Hungarian politician Márton Gyöngyösi was a "right-wing" MEP. The original story said he was "far-right", but this was inaccurate, according to a letter from Gyöngyösi to EUobserver, who said he was "centre-right", and other sources.

The story Is Luxembourg the weak link in EU and Nato security? was amended on Thursday (16 November) to clarify two points. EUobserver added the phrase "according to EUobserver sources" to the line: "Its intelligence service, La Sûreté de l'Etat (VSSE), is well aware of Luxembourg's alleged shortcomings." This change was made to clarify that the VSSE did not officially speak to EUobserver about the Luxembourg allegations. EUobserver also changed the attribution of a quote in the following paragraph: "The VSSE as a [Club de Berne] president has no authority on the functioning of individual services, who solely report to their national hierarchies". This was originally attributed to "the VSSE". It is now attributed to "a Belgian intelligence contact". This change was made because the VSSE didn't want to acknowledge its Club-de-Berne status in an on-the-record statement.
