FATBARDH DEMA

The Facebook page named "Gazeta Selam" published an image on October 10 showing a child with a doll in her hand, sitting in the ruins of a destroyed building.

After fact-checking conducted by hibrid.info, it has been confirmed that this photo is old.

Knowing that this site, which in recent days has published materials regarding the current conflict between Hamas and Israel, has also tried to present this image as current.

After researching through the automated program “InVID”, hibrid.info has managed to find the authentic photograph taken by photographer Shaban ELSousi, dated May 14, 2021. (see here, here)

The author has captioned this photo "Child Celine from Gaza received the Eid with her doll in the rubble of the bombed house", which in Albanian translates to "Child Celine from Gaza celebrated Eid with her doll in the ruins of her bombed house."


Analyze:

The website "Gazeta Selam" published a photograph from 2021 on October 10, claiming to present it as having been taken in the current conflict between Hamas and Israel.

Based on its work methodology, hibrid.info rates this post as "Unverified Content".


Reasoning:

The “Unverified” rating is given to those media reports that do not provide sufficient information to confirm the claims made in the report, and which have not been able to confirm the same due to the lack or non-possession of reliable sources.
