The dubious portal "Specialja.com" has published an article titled "Israel strictly bans Dua Lipa's songs, after this scandal it will withdraw recognition of Kosovo."
The article is based on an old news story (June 4) about a petition launched in Israel to ban the broadcasting of singer Dua Lipa's songs, in response to a post that the singer shared on her Instagram account with allegedly anti-Israel content, where she wrote about how soldiers shoot children. However, in the article of the dubious portal "Specialja.com", it is noted that this old news story has also been attached to a fabricated article - the withdrawal of recognition of Kosovo by Israel.

The news that was released as the reason for the creation of this fabricated article was about the reaction of the famous singer of Kosovar origin, Dua Lipa, to some actions of the Israeli army against Palestinian residents.
“While everyone is in the mood to talk about human rights, this is what happens every day in Palestine, paid for by our taxpayer dollars. “The big bad boys of the Israeli army thoroughly enjoy beating and shooting children,” the post continued. “They even have T-shirts depicting a pregnant Palestinian woman with a sniper scope on her stomach that reads ‘1 shot two kills,’” she wrote on her Instagram profile.
