Overview
- Videos released Aug. 11 feature Siham Al-Jarabe’a saying her stepson, identified as Abdul Rahim Mohammed Hamdan Al-Jarabe’a, was alive two months after the alleged shooting and went missing on July 28.
- The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation rejected that any shooting took place at its aid distribution site on May 28 and said Tony Aguilar could not have witnessed such an event.
- A security officer’s bodycam footage from that day does not match Aguilar’s description, and the officer called his claims completely fabricated.
- Aguilar maintained that key moments were not captured on video and insisted his original eyewitness account was accurate.
- Despite these contradictions, the narrative continues to spread online, illustrating the persistence of unverified claims in conflict reporting.
