A video of people climbing the Israel-Lebanon border wall during protests in solidarity with the Palestinian people in May 2021 has resurfaced online with the false claim that it was filmed in October 2023 during the latest conflict between Hamas and Israel. The mislabeled video was shared online after former Hamas chief Khaled Meshaal called for protests across the Muslim world on Oct. 13 in support of Palestinians, Reuters reported. A Reuters photograph taken at the Lebanese border village of Adaisseh on May 15, 2021, shows people climbing the concrete wall with the large building in the background. The building in the background is a match when comparing the YouTube video uploaded in 2021, the clip circulating in 2023 and the Reuters image taken on May 15, 2021, in Adaisseh village. The video shows people scaling the Israel-Lebanon border wall in 2021, not 2023.
