A photo circulating online on Friday shows an ‘Israeli’ soldier carrying a missile marked with the words “In memory of Charlie Kirk,” drawing widespread criticism on social media.

Critics on social media condemned the missile’s inscription as “provocative” and “deeply offensive,” linking it to the recent fatal shooting of US conservative commentator Charlie Kirk. Many viewed the act as an apparent glorification of violence.

    However, seeing the killer it is unlikely that it was actually Israel behind it.
