Not a Borat Sketch! The IDF Spokesman points to a random calendar at the Rantisi hospital as "evidence" of a "hostage keepers' list" with "terrorists' names".
But the ONLY thing on that "list" is literally the days of the week (Saturday-Friday).
No tunnels, no weapon stash...🧵
2\ Israel couldn't find any tunnels or weapons at the hospital, so they made up a new lie of "hostages were kept in the hospital's basement".
But how were those hostages transported out when IDF soldiers & tanks have been fully surrounding that hospital?
3\ The women's clothes, diapers, milk & improvised toilet are b/c 1000s of civilians sought shelter at the hospital.
The curtains are for video conferences & media appearances in that MEETING ROOM.
Again, if hostages were there, how were they moved out in front of your tanks?
4\ Israeli media immediately reports this hilarious IDF/Borat propaganda as a basic fact without bothering to ask a single Arabic speaker to verify the "terror list"!
If they so easily report this as a fact, what else have they been reporting without the slightest verification?
5\ The "weapon stash" trick is so old & obvious, it was openly advocated for by Israel's ex-Prime Minister Yair Lapid in 2010 to legitimize the Israeli attack on the Mavi Marmara Freedom Flotilla Ship where they killed 10 civilians that tried to break the naval blockade on Gaza!
6\ The "nearest tunnel" per the IDF own spokesman is 200 METERS away from the hospital, at a known Hamas member's home!
Nothing in the hospital itself!
That's if we even believe the IDF spokesman was showing the accurate distance & not doctoring footage!
7\ The IDF forcibly emptied the Rantisi Paediatric Hospital of all patients & refugees & took over it completely.
They inspected virtually every detail of the building & couldn't provide ANY hard evidence that there were tunnels inside the hospital or rockets/arms fired from it!

The US & Israel are the ones who asked Qatar to host Hamas' political (NOT military) leadership to maintain indirect dialogue with them
When Qatar asked Hamas' leadership to leave in Nov 2024 & suspended their office in Doha, Trump asked them to reopen it again & re-host Hamas🧵
2\ Netanyahu just broke this arrangement & bombed Doha to target Hamas negotiators in the midst of their discussion of Trump's latest ceasefire proposal
In March 2025, Netanyahu killed Hamas entire negotiating team in Gaza (e.g. Salah Bardawil, Essam Da'alees, Ismael Barhoum, Abu Obaida al-Jimassi)
3\ Netanyahu killed Hamas' negotiating team inside Gaza in March 2025 while they were discussing Witkoff's proposal to extend the ceasefire
Similarly, Israel killed Hamas' top negotiator Ismael Haniya in July 2024 right after he accepted Biden's ceasefire/prisoner swap proposal
Last time Israel raided & took over Nasir hospital, they executed doctors, patients, children & elderly after chaining their hands & legs!
Mass graves were discovered when Israel left the area. The atrocity was so shocking, the US demanded answers (that Israel never gave)🧵
2\ Bodies in the mass grave showed gunshot marks in the head & tied hands, some buried in patient gowns, including children.
3\ Amongst the bodies discovered in the mass grave was that of a girl whose leg was amputated after being wounded in an Israeli airstrike. Her family says she was still alive at the hospital when Israel raided it
Israeli propagandists got their marching orders: blame Egypt for Israel's famine in Gaza. So here are the facts🧵
1- Egypt doesn't control its borders with Gaza, Israel does b/c it occupies Rafah (as Ravid points out)
Israel is NOT allowing ANY food to come from Egypt into Gaza
2- Israel fully depopulated all of Rafah & most of Khan Younis.
If Egypt sends any trucks into Gaza, there are NO Palestinians on the other side to receive it, there's only IDF troops in those dark purple coloured areas (& Israel's proxy Abu Shabab gang that loots aid)!
3- From the start of the genocide, Israel explicitly told Egypt it would bomb any aid convoys that cross from the Rafah crossing into Gaza
Israel then bombed the Rafah crossing multiple times to emphasize that threat & shut the crossing down aa.com.tr/en/middle-east…
🚨Debunking Israel's talking points about over 83% of causalities in Gaza being civilians🧵
Claim 1: "The 8,900 figure only includes Hamas militants targeted in intelligence-led precision strikes, not those killed in combat"
False! IDF standard procedure is to photograph bodies of Gazans killed in the field, e.g. in designated "extermination zones" or in combat, & collecting details such as ID cards or phones from the bodies.
Soldiers then send those pictures & confiscated belongings to the Israeli intelligence "to verify militant status." Less than 5% of those causalities are identified as Hamas after intel analysis.
Claim 2: "Hamas admitted in Feb 2024 losing 6,000 fighters, so 8900 by May 2025 is an undercount"
Hamas never made that statement! They immediately & officially denied its veracity & called out the outlet that attributed it to an unnamed anonymous Hamas source!
Claim 3: "8,900 killed militants is an underestimate"
No! It's an overestimate; this is the same database that listed Anas Al-Sharif, Ismael al-Ghoul, Hassan Islaih & others are "Hamas militants"
Israel's database also includes people who have long ceased to have any combatant role (e.g. veteran wounded in previous wars, people who quit Hamas or the Qassam, people who deserted their positions & fled... none of those would be regarded as militants under the laws of war).
Additionally, Israel's database designates someone as a militant in Gaza based on intel, probability, social media, intercepted calls, whatsapp groups, old & new Hamas documents... It's not a conclusive database of who is a militant, but an estimation of who Israel considers to be "highly likely" a militant.
