Misbar’s Analysis
Misbar investigated the circulating video and found the claim to be misleading.
Misbar's team found that the video is outdated and unrelated to the recent war on Gaza. The video dates back to 2013 in Egypt and is not linked to the Israeli war on Gaza.

Students from the boys' and girls' marches joined forces in a single march that met between the buildings of the Faculty of Medicine and Engineering next to the headquarters of Al-Azhar University, after touring the university campus to rally students and disrupt classes. The marches then headed to the Faculty of Engineering.
