Hamas’ Lies Exposed: New “Hungry Child” Image Debunked

The widely circulated image of 14-year-old Abdul Qader Al-Fayoumi, allegedly suffering from starvation in Gaza, is Hamas' least blood libel against Israel. Abdul actually suffers from a genetic neurological disease and was treated in Israel as early as 2018—long before the war began. The viral photo, used by Hamas to highlight supposed starvation in Gaza, is part of a false narrative. Experts and officials emphasize that the real cause of hunger and suffering in Gaza lies with Hamas, not Israel. The campaign around this image is yet another attempt by Hamas to manipulate public opinion and obscure their own responsibility for the humanitarian crisis.
