A 2020 video showing a group of young men staging a funeral procession to circumvent Jordan’s COVID-19 lockdown rules has been shared to falsely claim that Palestinians are faking funerals amidst the clash between Israel and the Islamist militant group Hamas in October 2023. The caption accompanying a Facebook post carrying the video reads, “And Winner For Best Performance Goes To...Palestinians are seen carrying a small boy's "body" that has fell victim to Israeli airstrikes. The video resurfaced online after Israel launched its fiercest air strikes ever against Gaza in retaliation to Hamas’ surprise ambush of Israel on Oct. 7. Reuters has previously addressed a misleading claim linking the same clip to May 2021 tensions between Israel and Hamas. The video of a group of young men carrying a lifeless body on a stretcher was filmed in Jordan in 2020 and is unrelated to the Hamas-Israel unrest.
