‘PALLYWOOD’: Israel accuses enemies of fake casualties

A BBC spokesperson has responded to the claims, saying to the best of their knowledge the vision was not staged.

“The footage shown by BBC News was edited from a longer sequence provided by the Reuters news agency in which the man in question is shown being lifted from the ground.”

“He is then given attention at the roadside, before appearing later having recovered.”

“Steps have been taken to ensure any re-broadcast reflects the full sequence so that is absolutely clear to our audience.”

Looks fake. Am I missing something? I suppose the footage could be out of sequence and the guy was somehow injured later but the lack of apparent injuries and nobody seems injured around him makes me lean towards fake. Any thoughts?
