Original Note:
This claim is false. Israel was not responsible for the attack that caused these injuries, and the victim is not Palestinian. This is Mohammed Hamid, a Kurdish boy from northern Syria who suffered these burns from Turkish air strikes in October 2019. – https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/i-m-not-afraid-of-anything-now-says-boy-13-burnt-in-bombing-6glc8sq50 – https://www.al-monitor.com/originals/2020/05/turkey-incursion-syria-refugees-burn-victims-accusations.html – https://nypost.com/2019/10/18/kurdish-boy-treated-for-white-phosphorus-burns-allegedly-used-by-turkish-forces/
