What is the Actual Truth about the Video? : Fact
The truth is that this video was captured during the devastating earthquake that struck Turkey and other regions in February of this year. A few days prior, the last part of the video was making the same false claims that it did. It is not at all related to the Palestinian child being bombed by Israel during the ongoing conflict.
The video was posted on Instagram by yillarin_yoorgunu on Feb 8, 2023.

Intent:
Propagandists are circulating old videos from different locations to set their propaganda against Israel.
Conclusion:
Claim : A video of a child rescue has gone viral, purporting to show a Palestinian child being bombed by Israel in the ongoing conflict between Hamas terrorists and Israel.
