Spoke to @NikkiMcR from Rolling Stone about denials of civilian harm in Gaza, how crisis actor claims have spread on social media, and the harm these narratives can have.

Palestinians are being falsely accused of engaging in "Pallywood" and faking the horrors they’re experiencing in Gaza as part of the Israel-Hamas war.

This strike happened in early November 2023. Journalists being killed and wounded has been one of many awful occurrences that have become routine in the last two years of this.

Early in the conflict, livestreams like these were a very useful way see what was happening in Gaza, particularly with international journalists being denied entry.

As the @airwars entry says, immediate aftermath video is impossible to precisely geolocate on its own. Found this video taken before the strike in the same room, has enough visual info confirm its filmed in the tower.

Had a look around for more material from the aftermath. This video shows people returning to the building after the strike, you can see the camera equipment set up to livestream

Was looking at this strike recently because I came across this post, random uninformed account making light of the strike and speculating who may have lived here. @airwars did a report on it at the time, three journalists were reported injured.

Reading about this was reminded of the strike that destroyed the Palestinian Media Group's office in 2023. Like the Nasser Hospital site, the org's office in the Burj Al-Ghafri tower was used to livestream and broadcast news reports.

Israel justified its strike on the Nasser Hospital, which killed six journalists and more than a dozen others, by claiming a "Hamas" camera was set up there. The location they attacked is where Reuters and the AP livestream. From @IKershner, me, @ckoettl, @sanjanamv, @aboxerman1.

New imagery shows buildings being demolished by the IDF around a recently abandoned camp in the south of Gaza city. Just ten days prior the area was full of people.
