The Israeli Defense Forces on Sunday accused a prominent journalist– who in recent months has reported regularly for Al Jazeera from Gaza – of moonlighting as a senior Hamas commander.

The Israeli Defense Forces have published photos they say were discovered on a laptop in Gaza that show Al Jazeera journalist Mohamed Washah engaged in Hamas terrorist activities.

Neither Al Jazeera nor the Qatari government have responded to the Sun’s request for comment.

They found a literal photo of the guy loading a shell.

In order to know that, we would need to verify the following:

  1. The photo is real and not a fake or AI generated one.
  2. The man in the photo is the journalist and not someone else.
  3. The context of the photo. What is he actually doing? Just because someone is holding what appears to be a munition doesn’t mean they are Hamas. He could be inspecting it as part of his role in being a journalist.

Guy above me is already tagged as zionist in my app, so don't even bother.

That said, we're definitely gonna need context because the pics alone don't look great. Plus since when does Israel accuse someone of being hamas before killing them?

IDF had intelligence information about him before

I take the IDF's word like I take Russia's word. So you can see my struggle here.
