On Wednesday, the Israeli military attacked al-Shifa Medical Complex, the largest hospital in the Gaza Strip, where more than two thousand people are still trapped, after violent clashes near the facility, which Israel accuses Hamas of using for military purposes. Intentions to deny movement.

In this case, a video which the publishers said depicted the shooting at the hospital went viral on social media. However, since the video is old from 2013 and was actually filmed in Egypt, the claim is false.

The video shows what appears to be a collapsed hospital, with gunshots heard in the background.

“Communication was cut off with the entire medical staff at the Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza. The Zionists in the hospital opened heavy fire inside the hospital,” the accompanying comments said.

The accompanying comments said, “Communication was lost with all medical teams and heavy firing took place inside the hospital.”

The video began circulating on Facebook and X, the day after the Israeli army announced that it had attacked the Shifa medical complex in the early hours of Wednesday.

Egypt in 2013

An accompanying commentary noted that “on the day of the massacre there was heavy firing on prisoners at Rabah Hospital.”
