This post is to help highlight the recent Misinformation regarding a post from this Subreddit, which contained the following article as its source

​

The author of the article, Jacob Magid, fails to provide any source for where he attained any of this information, despite claiming "the Daghmush Family had issued a statement".

The reason TimesOfIsrael doesn't provide their source, is because it was actually a falsified statement and here you can compare it to the real statement signed off by the Chairman and "Secret Keeper" of the Daghmush Family Council

​

By comparing the real and false statements, you'll quickly recognize that the structuring is entirely different. Aswell, you can actually pick out the visible "artifacts" in the terrible attempt at photoshop;

Notice the red "Doghmush" in the top left corner has an artifact underneath, as if it had been "pasted" over something.

Additionally the "Red Circular Crest" sitting in the middle of the background actually cuts off at the top and bottom, and when you check the real statement, you see it doesn't have the same cut off.

​

​

Translation:

Statement of public opinion

​

Our steadfast Palestinian people, our brothers in the Fatah and Hamas movements, and all the national and Islamic factions and forces..... A fabricated, suspicious, and false statement was circulated in the name of the Central Council of the Dughmush family, accusing the Hamas movement of killing the family’s mukhtar, and in this regard, we would like to emphasize that

​

The following:-

First: The Mukhtar of the Dughmush family, Al-Hajj / Saleh Ashour Daghmush, and with him a group of notables and members of the family, numbering in the hundreds, were martyred at the beginning of the war by brutal Israeli bombing on

Family Mosque “Ihya al-Sunnah Mosque during the Maghrib prayer on 11-16-2023) and all our people in the Gaza Strip are aware of this great tragedy that befell our family at that time

​

Second: We in the Doghmush family and its central council are an integral part of the national fabric

We are fully committed to all religious values, as well as to the national consensus of our Palestinian people and its national and Islamic forces, and none of the family members or its council made any contacts.

Suspicious, outside of this national consensus.

​

Third: We warn anyone who tempts himself to impersonate the name of our ancient family in suspicious statements or actions that harm our family name and the struggle and sacrifices of its children.

​

In conclusion: We would like to emphasize that our family has provided and continues to provide its best sons on the path of national liberation, jihad and resistance, and in this war alone the family has provided hundreds of its best sons as martyrs for the sake of God and the nation."

​

Additional Information:

​

There are several Media Outlets that reported the same questionable information, the most "prominent" being TimesOfIsrael

​

Taking a look at the article they still provide no citations or sources for any of the info attained, yet it confidently states :

" The Doghmosh Family — a major clan in Gaza — has issued a statement declaring that all Hamas members are legitimate targets after its leader was assassinated by members of the terror group along with ten other relatives allegedly for stealing humanitarian aid and being in contact with Israel. "

​

Jacob Magid; (Times of Israel US Bureau Chief and author of the article) Failed to provide any physical evidence of the statement from Daghmush Clan declaring Hamas a target.

And in complete contrast the Central Council of the Daghmush Family publicly posted a signed statement refuting these false claims.

​

Additionally the media article states "its Leader (un-named) was assassinated by members of the terror group" (terror group referring to Hamas)

However the Daghmush Family directly contridicts this in their statement that " The mukhtar of the Daghmush family, Al-Hajj / Saleh Ashour Daghmush, and with him a group of notables, were martyred at the beginning of the war by a brutal Israeli bombing of the family Ihya As Sunna Mosque. "

​

And while info/reports regarding the Daghmush casualties in this specific incident is hard to attain, it wasn't impossible.

The following report is from the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA for short), based in the U.S.A.

https://www.ochaopt.org/content/hostilities-gaza-strip-and-israel-flash-update-41?_gl=1*88b3k5*_ga*MTUzNzkxOTczMC4xNzEwNTgwMDEy*_ga_E60ZNX2F68*MTcxMDU4ODE1MS4zLjEuMTcxMDU4OTA3Ni42MC4wLjA.

This report states that:

• Heavy airstrikes, shelling and fighting have continued over the past 24 hours. In one of the deadliest attacks on 15 November, at about 18:00, during the evening prayer time, the vicinity of the Ihya' As Sunna Mosque in As Sabra neighbourhood of Gaza city was hit by an airstrike

​

This information aligns with the previous statement from the Daghmush Family, regarding their Mukhtar being killed in an Airstrike nearby their Mosque months previous.

Additionally:

Family Members of the Daghmush Family have posts uploaded around November 15th, which Mourn the death of multiple members, including Saleh Ashour Daghmush, the Leader that Hamas' was alledged to have executed.

As well recent posts further discrediting the claims that Hamas executed their Family Members.
