NEW DELHI: Against the backdrop of the Israel-Hamas war, the Israeli government alleged that Hamas was trying to deceive the public by passing off a doll as a slain Palestinian child, being held by her parent.

On X, the state of Israel’s official handle shared a video and a photo of the said ‘doll’.

AltNews found that the father of the slain child was actually at the Al-Shifa hospital, corroborated by the Getty Images caption, and also independently to Alt News by photographer Momen El Halabi, who was at the spot and recorded the viral video.
