Inside Gaza’s #TheyLiedToYou campaign challenging ceasefire claims

What happened

Al Jazeera Gaza reports on the Palestinian #TheyLiedToYou campaign, launched to oppose the claim that a ceasefire ended Israel’s actions described by participants as genocidal in Gaza. The campaign argues that despite ceasefire announcements, the war and its effects have not ceased.

Outside Brief is treating this as a source-led account. Any disputed responsibility, casualty figure, battlefield claim or single-source assertion should be treated as unconfirmed/hearsay unless confirmed by another reliable source or a named official. The campaign serves to highlight what its organizers see as false narratives around the conflict, emphasizing that hostilities and hardships continue on the ground in Gaza. This counters official statements or media reports suggesting a cessation of violence.

The information in the report is based on the campaign’s messaging and statements conveyed by Al Jazeera correspondent Nada Qaddourah, without additional independent verification or casualty or strike details provided in the source.

Known from the source

• The #TheyLiedToYou campaign was launched by Palestinians in Gaza.
• The campaign challenges the narrative that the ceasefire ended Israeli actions described as genocide.
• The campaign claims the war has not really stopped despite ceasefire declarations.
• Al Jazeera reported on this campaign with correspondent Nada Qaddourah.

What remains unclear

Tracking these narratives is important for the Gaza desk amid ongoing conflict, as they illustrate the challenges in verifying ceasefire stability and the lived reality of civilians who may still face strikes, displacement, or shortages, which are central to conflict coverage.

What remains unclear: Confirm whether the central claim is corroborated; until then treat it as unconfirmed/hearsay. Current verified status of any ceasefire in Gaza as of the report date. Independent confirmation of ongoing military actions or violence post-ceasefire claim. Casualty figures or humanitarian impact corresponding to campaign assertions.
