Israeli Influencer Denies Playing Gaza Nurse in Viral Video
An Israel-based influencer has denied accusations that she pretended to be a nurse at Gaza’s Shifa hospital in a video that went viral on social media.
Hannah Abutbul, a 26-year-old content creator based in Israel, was targeted online over a video that purportedly showed a nurse warning others about Hamas “taking over” and stealing fuel from the hospital.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have targeted Gaza’s biggest medical facility which they said was the site of a Hamas command center, a charge denied by the group.
Abutbul told Newsweek she was not in the video and is ready to “sue the people who defamed me.”

The viral video, mainly in English, shows a woman, said to be a nurse, urging people in the Shifa hospital to leave, claiming that Hamas had taken over the hospital, stealing fuel and medicine. What sounds like explosions can be heard in the background.
At several points during the film, the woman appears to say a few words in Arabic.
“[Arabic] I can’t believe I’m doing this, but the world has to know, has to know what Hamas is making here,” they said.
“They’re taking over the entire hospital, they’re taking over the fuel, the medicine. I have nothing to treat with.
“I have to fix a fracture, for a five… a five-year-old boy without morphine because Hamas took it to themselves. [Arabic]. Please, if you hear me, please, leave, run away, don’t stay here, please. [Arabic].”
