  • Fact Check: Video of female Israeli soldier breaking down is more than a decade old A fact-check by India Today found that the video is eleven years old and not from Gaza. Listen to Story India Today Fact Check This video dates back to November 15, 2012, and shows an Israeli soldier breaking down in Southern Israel. A video allegedly showing a female Israel Defense Forces soldier howling and crying amid the noise of explosions has gone viral on social media. Those sharing the clip claimed that the IDF soldier experienced a mental breakdown due to the fear of the Islamic Resistance Force, alias Hamas, in Gaza. "FOOTAGE: IDF SOLDIER HAS MENTAL BREAKDOWN. OLD MAN WANT WAR | YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE TO FIGHT IT. Would the fighters, from both sides, go to war if it wasn't decided from above?" read one X post containing the clip. The video was also shared on Facebook with similar claims. Its archived version can be seen here. India Today Fact Check found that the video is 11 years old and unrelated to the ongoing war between Hamas and Israel. Our Probe Upon reverse-searching keyframes from the viral video, we came across its screenshot in an Arabic news report published on November 17, 2012. The report said that the female Israeli soldier was screaming in response to a cacophony of sirens and the impact of rockets hitting the ground. This incident was similarly covered by other Arabic media outlets. As the logo of Sky News Arabic was visible in the video, we searched using some advanced keywords and found the original video on its YouTube channel as well. Uploaded on November 15, 2012, the Arabic caption of this video translates to: "Qassam rockets cause panic in Israel". Qassam, or Al Qassam, is the military wing of Hamas. As per the description of the video, these rocket attacks by Al Qassam brigades were in response to the killing of its deputy commander, Ahmed Al-Jaabari. Reportedly, the Hamas military chief was killed by an Israeli airstrike in the Gaza Strip on November 14, 2012. Therefore, it leaves no doubt that the video was neither shot in Israeli-occupied Gaza nor does it show the ongoing war.
