Israel's far-right national security minister Ben Gvir deleted an artificially generated video depicting malnourished Palestinian prisoners, Middle East Eye reported. The clip sparked immediate backlash, with observers drawing comparisons to Nazi concentration camp imagery. Gvir removed the post after the criticism mounted.
The video's content and the minister's stated purpose for posting it remain unclear from available reporting. The deletion followed swift public condemnation of the material and raised questions about the use of synthetic media by senior Israeli officials in depicting Palestinian detainees.
