Basically, a picture alleging an Israeli aircraft attack on Palestine has recently been circulating on Facebook. However, upon investigation by the fact-checking team, it has been determined that this picture is not recent but rather from over two years ago. It was taken during the Israeli aircraft forces’ attack on the southern Gaza Strip in Palestine on May 11, 2021. 

So, an old photo of Israeli airstrikes in Palestine shared as the recent attack of Israel in Palestine, which is misleading.
