Thousands of civilians have been killed on both sides of the bloody war triggered when Hamas gunmen launched an unprecedented attack on Israel on October 7 from the Gaza Strip, seizing more than 220 hostages. A video circulating on social media showing chaotic scenes, however, is not related to the conflict.
The footage in fact shows clips from a religious festival in India and an oil tanker explosion in Nigeria.
Israel says Hamas militants killed 1,400 people, mostly civilians, when they stormed across the border on October 7 in an unprecedented attack. More than 220 hostages were also seized. The YouTube video was published with a caption saying it shows Ratha Yatra celebrations in the city of Baripada in eastern India.
