Greta Thunberg was forced to delete an Instagram post protesting the “cruelty and dehumanization” dealt to Palestinian prisoners of Israel after the sister of a Hamas hostage pointed out she had mistakenly used a propaganda image of her “starved” brother, thinking he was a Palestinian.
The post, shared Monday by the Swedish activist and other campaigners, claimed to highlight “the suffering of Palestinian prisoners.” But one of the photos was a still of 24-year-old Israeli hostage Evyatar David pulled from footage released by Hamas in August that showed the prisoner, gaunt and shirtless, digging his own grave.
