Footage from Gaza is raising questions about the authenticity of Israeli forces’ claims regarding their operations in Gaza. The videos, initially shared by Israeli reporter Barak Ravid and later deleted, depict Moin Qeshta Al-Masry, a civilian and owner of an aluminium workshop.
Al-Masry is shown in two videos standing with a group of arrested Palestinian men all stripped except from underwear. In the two videos, supposed to be for the same event, Al-Masry was coerced by Israeli soldiers into holding weapons in various staged manners. The two videos show him holding a weapon in different hands indicating the same scene was repeated in what appears to be an attempt to manipulate the narrative.
These new videos seem to be part of a larger effort by Israeli forces to support their claims of arresting fighters in Gaza. The exposure of this setup by social media users, who quickly identified Al-Masry, has led to public reactions ranging from disbelief to criticism.
