A Facebook social media page has published an article about planning the creation of new settlements in Gaza, supporting it with a photograph.
The content claims that Israel is planning new settlements in Gaza, adding the following: "Israeli settlers dream of planning beach houses in Gaza."
But after research and facts conducted by hibrid.info, it has been proven that this claim is untrue.
Link to the post published by the "Writing Investigator" page:
Hibrid.info, during its research through online search engines, found an article in the Israeli media "Hareetz" that shows that this announcement about the creation of new settlements in Gaza by Israel was just a satire of an advertisement made by an Israeli company. (see here)
But, since the article cannot be read in full on this medium's website, hibrid.info has found the full article on the Spanish fact-checking platform "Maldita.es" (see here), which explains in detail that the Israeli real estate company had made an advertisement saying that it was “laying the foundations for a return to Gush Katif,” the settlements that Israel evacuated from Gaza in 2005. But, the company’s director has clarified that this was just a satire within the framework of the advertisement. (see here article published on Maldita.es)
Analyze:
A Facebook social media page has published an article about planning the creation of new settlements in Gaza, claiming that "Israeli settlers dream of planning beach houses in Gaza."
But, after verification of the facts conducted by hibrid.info, it has been proven that this claim is not true.
Based on its work methodology, hibrid.info assesses this article as unverified content and satire.
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.
The “Satire” rating includes content that uses premeditated news that uses satire to portray reality. This is also a way of reporting that is not problematic, if the media manages to argue that it is satirical content.
