How an Indian disinformation campaign is targeting Palestinians • The Observers - France 24

Since the start of the conflict between Hamas and Israel on October 7, many Indian accounts on X (formerly Twitter) have been claiming that Palestinians are pretending to be wounded by Israeli army bombardments. These viral videos have no basis in fact and are part of a larger disinformation campaign that seems to be coming from India.

A report by Logically Facts, an organisation that specialises in analysing and combating misinformation, says that this misinformation campaign comes in the run-up to the Indian elections, which will take place in the spring of 2024.
