A flood of misinformation shapes views of Israel-Gaza conflict: The barrage of false images, memes, videos and posts — mostly generated from within the region itself — is making it difficult to assess what is real. - "One such story is an allegation that Hamas beheaded babies in Kfar Aza, a kibbutz near Israel’s southern border with Gaza. The unconfirmed story appears to stem from a single Israeli news report on Tuesday.

'There have been cases of Hamas militants carrying out beheadings and other ISIS-style atrocities,' according to a Thursday statement provided to CNN. 'However, we cannot confirm if the victims were men or women, soldiers or civilians, adults or children.'"

'Let’s call this what it is — an invasion of women’s spaces by biological men under the guise of acceptance,' she wrote.
