Shocking !!! As  Fake Video Is Used To Defend Israel's Attack On Gaza

Katrina Pierson, senior advisor to Trump's 2020 presidential campaign, tweeted footage of rocket fire in Ukraine but claimed it shows Palestinian rocket barrage targeting Israel.

An advisor to US President Donald Trump has been caught red handed using fake videos to attack Palestinians, even as Israeli airstrikes killed 24 civilians in Gaza over the weekend.

She used the footage to lash out at pro-Palestinian Democratic Congresswoman #IlhanOmar on Sunday, after the Muslim-American representative from Minnesota criticised Israel's assault on the besieged Palestinian enclave. "650 Rockets being fired into Israel from Gaza in an attempt to overwhelm Israels Iron Dome: 173 intercepts, 4 people killed, and 28 wounded. What is  response to this violence? Will she condemn it?," tweeted Pierson, who was the national spokesperson for Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.

Twitter users however were quick to point out that the video dates back to 2015 and shows missile attacks during the Ukrainian conflict. 

American news website Mediaite accused Pierson of spreading a "fake video" in her Twitter attack on Omar.
