Another Gaza Child, Treated in Israel for Genetic Illness, Used by Hamas as Symbol of Famine
(Ynet News) Yoav Zitun - The IDF Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) on Thursday documented yet another case of Hamas using children with genetic illnesses to falsely depict famine in Gaza. The image of Abad Qader Al-Fayoumi, 14, was circulated online in recent days with claims that his deteriorating health was caused by hunger. However, Israeli defense officials said medical records show that Abad was treated in Israel in 2018 for a genetic neurological condition. "Abad was one of hundreds of Gazan children treated in Israeli hospitals in recent years."
