Misbar’s Analysis

Misbar investigated the claim and found it to be misleading. The video depicts a Palestinian girl who was genuinely injured during the ongoing aggression on Gaza; she was not faking her injury.

Misbar contacted Ahmed Abo Roos, who published the video on his Instagram account. He stated that the injured child's name was Zeina Ferwana, a Gaza resident displaced to the middle governorate during the latest displacement operations. She sustained injuries while near a house bombed by occupation forces. Abo Roos stated that it was Zeina herself who requested to be photographed to convey her message to the world.

In a statement, Al-Qassam Brigades mentioned that “a Zionist special force was discovered while trying to advance in order to free one of the enemy’s detainees, resulting in casualties among its members." They added, “The Israeli warplanes intervened, launching a series of airstrikes to cover their retreat."

Al-Qassam Brigades pointed out that “the clashes led to the death of the detained soldier Sa’ar Baruch, along with the capture of one soldier's rifle and the special force’s communication device."
