Quraish account on “X” published a design that mimicked the design of the breaking news on Al Jazeera Channel, and included the following text: “Turkish security sources: Arrest of a citizen holding Palestinian nationality on charges of funding spy networks”.
Kashif verified the design via reverse search using “Google Images” and found that it was manipulated and the claim was fabricated. Kashif’s team found the original design published by Al Jazeera on its official Facebook account on 3 September 2024, which included the following text: “Turkish security sources arrest a Kosovan citizen on charges of providing funding for Mossad spy networks”.
Through “Fotoforensics”, Kashif’s team found that the design was subject to manipulation, the word “Palestinian” was added to the design.
Kashif’s team also contacted Al Jazeera office, which denied the claim, and added that the news is related to the arrest of a citizen holding Kosovar citizenship.
The Turkish Intelligence Agency announced on Tuesday, 3 September 2024, the arrest of Kosovar citizen Liridon Rexhepi on charges of managing the financial network of the “Mossad” inside Turkey.
