A video purporting to show Palestinians “faking” their own deaths went viral on Sunday, quickly racking up over 1.2 million views on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. But the video isn’t from the Israel-Hamas war. In fact, the video is originally from August and doesn’t even appear to be from the Middle East.
If you look closely, there are also several signs this was part of an educational demonstration, as you can see a digital projector and a screen on a tripod. There also appears to be an instructor wearing a headset microphone. A lake or pond is also visible through the back windows which show lush greenery, a setting more in line with Malaysia than Gaza.
Ever since the start of the Israel-Gaza war, there have been a number of fake and misleading videos and images posted on both sides of the conflict. But some have suggested Palestinians are faking their own deaths in a conspiracy theory known as Pallywood—a play on the words. However, there’s no question Palestinians, including many civilians, are dying in this war, as independent observers like the United Nations have said.
