Outrage as UN-Palestinian exhibition uses murdered Israeli child's image as a Palestinian civilian casualty
Fox News
The U.N. office in Geneva takes down photos of Israeli children included in a pro-Palestinian exhibit; officials say they do not know who posted the "unofficial" pictures.
The mission first flagged the misinformation on Thursday after identifying the picture of a 5-year-old named Ido Avigal among the pictures of Palestinian children allegedly killed by Israel in Gaza. The mission said that Avigal had died in 2021 when a Hamas rocket barrage hit his house in Sderot, and it called his inclusion in the exhibition "despicable." Peter Aitken is a Fox News Digital reporter with a focus on national and global news.
Another user noted that the exhibit also included the picture of a Palestinian teenager who allegedly served in the Mujahideen Brigades, another extremist group based in Gaza and the West Bank. The U.N. did not confirm the veracity of any specific claim but acknowledged that some errant photos were posted "near" the exhibition and disavowed them.
