It has been 3 weeks since the Israel-Hamas conflict. In the last 21 days, more than 9000 people have lost their lives from both sides, but despite the efforts at the International level, the struggle is not stopping.
Meanwhile, a video is going viral on social media. It is being claimed about the video that news channel Al-Jazeera had shot a fake video of people wearing shrouds to show dead bodies in Gaza so that they can make a sympathetic narrative in favor of Hamas.
A claim made by a user
On social media platform X, a verified account named Pinku Shukla shared this video and wrote that Al Jazeera has done amazing shooting, Hamas even the dead body of Hamas is itching due to the heat of the camera.
The claim made by other users
Another verified account on X named Megh Updates shared a video and wrote Al Jazeera pre-shooting preparations.
Apart from this, many other accounts shared the same video with similar claims.
Fact Check
To know the truth of viral video, the DFRAC team converted the video into some keyframes and reverse-searched it on Google. During this, we found the real video on YouTube. The video was uploaded by an Arabic newspaper Al-Badil YouTube channel on 28 October 2013.
Giving the information about the video., it was said that the video is of the demonstration of students associated with the Muslim Brotherhood at Al-Azhar University. Where the students were holding symbolic demonstrations against the Egyptian Government. This is also confirmed by the BBC report.
Conclusion
Thus, it is clear from the DFRAC fact check that the viral video is misleading because the video is 10 years old. Also, this is about the demonstration of the students in Egypt’s Al-Azhar University. This is not related to the Israel-Hamas conflict.
