It later posted photos of items allegedly found at the scene, including an "UNRWA ID", leading to online accusations that the UN agency is linked to Hamas or that Sinwar was falsifying his identity. However, the document is an expired passport belonging to a man who is very much alive, and who has fled Gaza. Vedika Bahl shares what we know so far.
