IDF investigates forged Hamas documents leaked to foreign media – report
An IDF investigation found that documents forged by the Hamas terrorist organization were leaked to foreign media outlets that would negatively shape public opinion on Israel, according to a Sunday report by Ynet.
I’m not certain after reading the article that it was Hamas that forged these documents- read on..
The investigation was launched to find out who was manipulating the use of classified Hamas documents seized in Gaza or
those that were only allegedly taken from Hamas,
and passing them on to the international media in order to try and influence public opinion in Israel on the subject of a hostage deal.
Two articles published in the last few days were part of the IDF investigation, one from The Jewish Chronicle and one from the German tabloid newspaper Bild. Both have
claimed
to reveal internal and top secret documents of Hamas, supposedly straight from Yahya Sinwar’s computer.In both cases, Sinwar’s strategy reflects exactly what Netanyahu claimed in his speech
Regarding the document that the Jewish Chronicle claimed to reveal, an examination of all the materials collected since the beginning showed that Israeli intelligence collectively has no idea what or who it is about.
An examination by the IDF of the document published in the Bild article revealed that it didn’t even belong to Sinwar,
in the Bild article is that the newspaper supposedly quotes from the document saying that Hamas is not interested in the deal – which was not quoted in it at all.
Fake suicide letter, leaked for propaganda purposes- now being disavowed
A suicide note that was reported to have been written by an October 7 Nova music festival survivor and was widely distributed on social media has been found to be fake, according to the inquiries of Israeli and international journalists.
After a number of high-profile figures expressed sympathy on social media for the writer of the anonymous letter, allegedly shared by a family member on a Facebook page titled “Stories of Nova,” further probes into the identity of the writer and his or her family to confirm the story’s veracity yielded a substantial lack of evidence.
Updated additional link– Israeli forces accused of killing their own citizens under the ‘Hannibal Directive’ during October 7 chaos
This is not the first time this news has been reported- Older reports embedded below
The Israeli military is coming under increasing pressure to reveal just how many of their own citizens were killed by Israeli soldiers, pilots and police in the confusion of the Hamas attack on southern Israeli communities.
Survivors and relatives have been asking not just “what went wrong”, but whether the military invoked the controversial — and supposedly rescinded — “Hannibal Directive”.
After October 7, there were some testimonies from Israeli civilians and military personnel that Israeli forces responding to the Hamas attack killed their own citizens
‘This was a mass Hannibal’
In July, the Israeli newspaper Haaretz revealed commanders in the IDF gave the order to fire on troops who had been captured by Hamas at three separate locations, explicitly referencing the Hannibal Directive.
One former Israeli officer, Air Force Colonel Nof Erez, told a Haaretz podcast the directive was not specifically ordered but was “apparently applied” by responding aircrews.
Panicked, operating without their normal command structure and unable to coordinate with ground forces, they fired on vehicles returning to Gaza, knowing they were likely carrying hostages.
“This was a mass Hannibal. It was tons and tons of openings in the fence, and thousands of people in every type of vehicle, some with hostages and some without,” Colonel Erez said.
Air force pilots described to Yedioth Ahronot newspaper the firing of “tremendous” amounts of ammunition on October 7 at people attempting to cross the border between Gaza and Israel.
German Envoy admits he spread the lies
Top German officials spread lies
Absent this high-profile debunking by Israeli media, there is little reason to believe the German ambassador would have acknowledged his role in spreading this instance of rape atrocity propaganda.
Seibert has repeatedly spread the mass rapes hoax, and has not retracted his support for that lie.
