Viral video misidentified as Gaza protest, is Pakistani rally

A video showing white body bags has gone viral, claiming to depict a recent scene from Gaza during current airstrikes. The video was shared on Facebook with misleading captions. However, this claim is false. The video actually dates back to November 2023. It shows a pro-Palestine rally in Karachi, Pakistan. Thousands gathered at Nishtar Park to pay tribute to the martyrs, including many innocent children from Gaza. Fact-checkers confirmed this by analyzing screenshots from the video and using reverse image searches. Reports from November 2023 also describe the rally as a display of solidarity for Palestinians. Recently, there have been widespread protests in Pakistan against the Israeli airstrikes in Gaza, where over 700 Palestinians have reportedly died. Thousands marched in cities like Islamabad and Karachi, organized by the political party Jamaat-e-Islami. Similar demonstrations occurred in several other cities across the country. In summary, the viral video is not from Gaza but from a previous event in Pakistan.
