The Israeli army is using a Telegram channel named “72 Virgins – Uncensored” to conduct psychological warfare, targeting Israeli audiences with graphic content from Gaza. Despite official denials, a senior military official confirmed to Haaretz the army's involvement. The channel, created on 9 October, shortly after the war started, has over 700 posts featuring dead bodies, prisoners and destruction while using provocative captions. This is not the first time the Israeli army has used psychological warfare. It used fake social media accounts during the war in Gaza in 2021 to exaggerate their attacks' impact on Palestinians. Later, the army admitted to the ‘error’ after it was exposed.
