Medical records from the European Gaza Hospital confirm that Karim, a toddler featured in a prominent British newspaper, suffers from Fanconi-Bickel syndrome, a genetic disorder impacting muscle strength and organ function. The child's image was used on the Daily Mirror's cover alongside a call to end the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, with Holocaust survivors urging Israel to allow more aid. Israeli officials have criticized the use of Karim's photo, alleging that it was part of a propaganda effort and that media outlets failed to verify the medical facts. Family members of Karim have also been diagnosed with the same hereditary condition.
