Original Note:
False. The funeral wasn't recent or for a "terrorist" returned by Israel. The incident occurred in Damascus, Syria, on 30 June 2012. The video records a government-organized car bombing during the funeral of an anti-government Syrian killed by govt forces. https://www.nbcnews.com/video/video-shows-attack-on-funeral-procession-in-syria-44569667526 https://www.latimes.com/archives/blogs/world-now/story/2012-06-30/in-syria-at-least-85-killed-by-car-bombing-at-funeral https://edition.cnn.com/2012/06/30/world/meast/syria-unrest/index.html Fact check https://factly.in/an-old-video-of-syria-has-been-falsely-shared-as-a-recent-incident-from-israel/
