“Recent photos of a Palestinian man who has survived a bullet shot from the Israeli forces at Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem”
What FACTLY found
The person with a bullet on his head is Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al-Rawi from Iraq. Sheikh Al-Rawi got hit by a bullet to his head during the 2014 clashes between clan revolutionaries and Iraqi government troops. These photos were shot while Sheikh Al-Rawi was getting treatment at the Fallujah General Hospital in Iraq. These photos have nothing to do with the recent clashes between Israeli forces and Palestinians at Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem
