It is not 100% confirmed yet, but all indications are that Mr. FAFO, the crisis actor who has been a key element of the Hamas propaganda campaign in Gaza, is dead.

He was killed in a shootout between rival gangs, reportedly.
Is this actually the end of Mr. FAFO?

I’ve written about Mr.FAFO before because he has been the most visible element of Pallywood. He regularly appears in staged Hamas propaganda videos, appearing as a reporter, a dead body, a patient in a hospital, a doctor, a medical technician, and a grieving father or scared civilian running away from explosions or rampaging Israeli soldiers.
Reports suggest Fafo has been “martyred.” How? Ceasefire between Israel and Hamas has gone into effect?
Answer: Likely killed in clashes between Hamas and its rivals.
How can he be a martyr then? https://t.co/ftGy0OUO1h— Hussain Abdul-Hussain (@hahussain) October 12, 2025
His videos have appeared a number of times in Pravda Media news stories, either because the media folks are too stupid to realize that he is an actor rather than a journalist/victim, or because they don’t care. His videos are, at their best, compelling, although the average level of quality is rather low.
Reports from Gaza: The body of Hamas terrorist ** Saleh Al Jafarawi** arrived a short time ago from Tel Al-Hawa to Al-Quds Hospital
If this is true, this is irony at its best… survived the Israeli “genocide”, to be murdered by his fellow Palestinians.

FAFO did very well out of the war. He, among other things, started a “charity” that wound up scamming donors. He survived the war and the “famine” that somehow left the average Gazan looking as fat as the average attendee at the Minnesota State Fair (i.e. quite fat), so his “martyrdom” at the hands of fellow Gazans in the midst of a gang war is ironic in the extreme.

Beege wrote on October 10th about FAFO’s survival. I get the honor of notifying you of his likely death.
No way.

In another irony, his death may have been caught on video, although this particular one was not scripted out nor filmed semi-professionally for social media.

It is possible that reports of FAFO’s death are premature.
He has, after all, returned from the dead multiple times. Seven for eight, at least, if others’ reports are to be believed. I personally haven’t reviewed all his videos.

But it is notable that these reports, at least, were not filmed and released by him or his Pallywood pals.
As far as I can tell, the last video featuring FAFO alive is him celebrating with fellow emaciated Gazans who barely survived starvation in Gaza.

It’s a fitting video, if this is indeed his last. One more example of the persistent lies that he and his friends in the media have perpetrated. These are the healthiest and happiest survivors of a genocide in world history.
It’s confirmed.
The face of Hamas’s propaganda, Saleh Al-Jafarawi, famously known as Mr. FAFO, has been eliminated in Gaza.

Gazans are happy that the Israelis are leaving, and in turn, Israelis are happy that the hostages are coming home. But I am afraid that sometime in the near future, whether the interval is measured in months or years, the Gazans will attack again. They are unreformed, and their allies around the world are on the streets as I write, chanting “From the River to the Sea.” In their mind, the war continues, and this is merely an interval in which they can rearm and recruit.
So it goes. I doubt that a permanent peace has ever been on the table.
We can hope, of course. But I have little hope that there is a happy ending coming any time soon.
But at least FAFO finally found out. At least it looks that way.
