A suicide note, initially believed to be from a young survivor of Hamas’s 7 October attack at the Nova music festival, has been confirmed as a fabrication, Israeli media reported on Thursday, following a number of other false claims made by Israel regarding the events of that day.
The fabricated letter was widely shared on X, and reposted by Germany’s envoy to Israel who apologised on Thursday for disseminating fake news.
“I regret having believed – like so many others – that that suicide letter was real. It turns out it was a fake,” Ambassador Steffen Seibert posted on X.
Why did they fabricate this? Sympathy?
Actually it’s this article that’s fabricated for sympathy.
Not a single major news org ran this story that I could find.
You mean to tell me X is peddling disinformation? Shocker. Muskrats prefer marshes and swamps after all.
This is a fake story.
