There have been so, SO many Syrian conflict videos passed off as Gaza recently. There are also legitimate videos of terrible events occurring in Gaza.

All I ask is that people apply some scrutiny to the sources and don't trust that just because something went viral on Twitter with a caption saying it's from Gaza, that it is. There are incredible numbers of bad-faith grifters who thanks to Elon now have a monetary incentive to spread bullshit for "engagement" and a lot of if has gone viral with millions of views despite being verifiably false with a simple reverse image search.
