An aerial shot from a Nov. 11, 2023, protest in Tel Aviv demanding the release of Israeli hostages held by militant Palestinian group Hamas was falsely shared as footage from a pro-Palestinian protest held in Israel amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war. However, the image is a Reuters photograph taken on Nov. 11, 2023, showing a protest held in Tel Aviv demanding the release of Israeli hostages in Gaza who were seized in the Oct. 7 attack on southern Israel by Hamas gunmen. The demonstration took place in the square in front of the Tel Aviv Museum of Art. Separate anti-war protests calling for a ceasefire in Gaza have also taken place in Israel, including in Tel Aviv. The aerial photograph of a large crowd shows a demonstration in Tel Aviv demanding the release of Israeli hostages held by Hamas, not a pro-Palestinian protest.

These and other treasures were quickly taken off display and brought to special bunkers to ensure they are not damaged during the war. But this is a different situation so we have to act accordingly," said Hagit Maoz, curator of the Shrine of the Book at Jerusalem's Israel Museum. The last time the museum removed the display, Maoz said, was during the 1991 Gulf War when Iraq fired missiles at Israel. The Tel Aviv Museum of Art took similar precautions. "These works of art have experienced war, some of them survived World War Two," said museum director Tania Coen-Uzzielli.
