Netanyahu aide: Disturbing image shown on TVs – previously declared as charred bodies of Israeli civilians – was actually of Hamas fighters

The ongoing conflict in Gaza has resulted in numerous civilian deaths at the hands of Israeli forces since October 7, despite international laws prohibiting such actions. In an apparent attempt to justify these killings, Israel has disseminated false information to the global community.

In a further attempt to promote their agenda, Israel circulated images of charred bodies and a statement claiming that these were innocent civilians killed by Hamas. However, like many other falsehoods, this one was also proven to be untrue.

As a guest, Mark Regev, Chief Advisor to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, went on the American MSNBC channel.

Regev clarified that the disturbing image shown on the television channel, initially believed to be of Israeli civilian casualties, was actually of Hamas members.

Netanyahu's aide acknowledged the previous statement of 1,400 casualties and updated it to 1,200, acknowledging their mistake.

"The severity of the burns made it difficult to distinguish the victims' identities at first, leading to their initial belief that they were Israeli civilians. It was later discovered that they were, in fact, Hamas members," Mark Regev laid out in his televised remarks.
