2023-12-28 Israel embassy pulls ‘inappropriate’ video imagining Hamas attack on Seoul     he Israeli embassy in South Korea has deleted a video it produced showing an imaginary attack on Seoul by masked assailants it seemed to liken to Hamas, after concerns raised by the South Korean government.   The video, which was posted on the Israeli embassy’s social media channels on Tuesday, was deleted on Wednesday, South Korea’s Yonhap News Agency reported.  

“The killing and kidnapping of Israeli civilians by Hamas cannot be justified, but the Israeli Embassy’s production and distribution of a video drawing parallels to the security situation in another country was deemed inappropriate,” South Korea’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement.   “We have conveyed our position to the Israeli Embassy in South Korea, and the Israeli side has taken measures to delete the video in question.”   Sanad, Al Jazeera’s fact-checking agency, verified the existence of the video, which has since been pulled down.  https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/israel-embassy-pulls-inappropriate-video-imagining-hamas-attack-on-seoul/ar-AA1m90wT
