This Video Does Not Show A Recent Israeli Airstrike on Gaza

Misbar investigated the claim and found it to be misleading.

The video shows an airstrike on Gaza but it is outdated and unrelated to Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.

On May 13, 2023, during an Israeli escalation in Gaza, several journalists shared the clip in the claim along with the caption, “Israeli bombing destroys the Tafesh family home in the Al-Zaytoun neighbourhood, south of Gaza City.”

Hassan Eslayeh, a Gazan journalist, shared the same clip on May 13, 2023.

The Palestinian Information Center also shared the clip back then confirming that it was an Israeli airstrike on a residential building in Gaza, on May 13, 2023.
