In the first picture, the young girl is being carried by a man wearing a white helmet, in the second picture, she is held by a man in a yellow t-shirt and in the third, by a man wearing a green check shirt and a pair of spectacles. Several social media users shared the picture claiming or indirectly suggesting that the young Palestinian girl and the three rescuers were paid actors in a staged scene since the same girl could not be rescued thrice by three different persons.<\/p>\n<p>Though not entirely visible, it is clear that in the first picture, the rescuer is carrying two children in his arms.<\/p>\n<p>A verified handle on X (formerly Twitter), Squint Neon (@TheSquind), posted the picture with the caption, &#8220;This Palestinian girl is saved by 3 different people from 3 different locations on 3 different days and all locations are 50 KM apart from each other.
