What FACTLY found

The post shared a 2017 video of Israel Defence Force (IDF) troops dragging a Palestinian 8-year-old boy from house to house to identify other children allegedly accused of throwing stones and a Molotov cocktail on Kiryat Arba Israeli settlement in Hebron. The video shared in the post is old and has nothing to do with the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict.
