The White House was forced to walk back on president Joe Biden’s claim to have seen “confirmed pictures” of “terrorists beheading children” in Israel.
The Israel Defence Force previously claimed that at least 40 babies were killed in the Kfar Aza kibbutz over the weekend when the Hamas militant group launched an attack on Israel.
The army later clarified to Anadolu news agency that there was “no information confirming” allegations that “Hamas beheaded babies”.
Seems like the media is the one twisting stuff. I’ve been searching for the actual quote from the White House official that said they cannot confirm the pictures. I’ve been looking for nearly an hour, no media website has provided a source at all. However, I found it. The official said that he was referring to Israeli media, but it seems that was because he did not realize the pictures were not public.
However:
The Israeli PM just posted some of those pictures on X(Twitter) due to claims they were lying about it.

I saw a few different sources showing it, as I don’t have an account with x, but it seems the one I linked is the only one that shows multiple images rather than just one. It seems that the actual truth is that there were some beheadings, but the majority were “just” murdered.
I’m not trying to claim that Israel is in the right here, I’m just saying it seems Biden was not lying.
So the babies weren’t beheaded, but shot or burnt. Still horrible, as expected 😔
Unfortunately, there’s other photos out there with the burnt children.
I’ll take your word for it. I’m not looking at those. It doesn’t help my mental health and I’m already upset just reading about the heinous shit done at the music festival.
The source you linked doesn’t say anything about beheadings.
