Rubble Bucket challenge: Palestine reporter adapts craze for Gaza peace

Fact checked

‘A Palestinian journalist has started a new internet trend in Gaza, “the Rubble Bucket challenge,” playing on the popularity of the “Ice Bucket challenge,” which has conjured up a social media storm.

While water is scarce in Gaza, rubble certainly isn’t. After being bombarded by Israeli missiles for the last seven weeks, it can be found at almost every turn.

Initially, he named it #RemainsBucket, but Twitter trends it now as #RubbleBucketChallenge.
