Fact Check

Using Invid- We Verify tool, we fragmented the video into frames and did a Google reverse image search for those frames. After a deep reverse image search, we could find the related incident to this video.

A video depicting a security guard using excessive power to detain a boy who was accused of traveling without a ticket on a train. The incident happened in 2015 at the central railway station in Malmo, Sweden. And it`s not in any way connected with Israel or Palestine. A private company owns the railway station, and a security guard related to this incident was a member of the security firm on duty at the railway station. Even though the boy was in some distress in the video, any media report did not say about the death of that victim. A Swedish media report about it can be read here. Archived.

International media also reported on this incident. For example, the report of the UK`s “ The Independent” newspaper can be read here. Archived.

At a certain point in the video, it seems that the boy was reciting Islamic verse, and we can assume that it can be the cause behind the fabrication of the Palestinian story.
