Early in 2018 the Trump administration announced that it would withdraw financial support for Palestine unless the country agreed to concessions. U.S. Ambassador Nicki Haley presented the U.S. position on the matter to the U.N. in January.

Then, according to many people on Twitter, something amazing happened. In defiance of the Nicki Haley's pronouncement, the Palestinian delegation got up... and began to dance!

Text reads: "The Palestinian representative played a song on his mobile phone & danced at the UN as a response to Nikki Haley announcing that the U.S. will be cutting aid to Palestinians unless they recognise Jerusalem as Israel's capital."

Fact check this, then answer the following questions in your fact-checking notebook under the heading UN DANCE:

• Is the video unaltered (i.e., a "real" video)?
• Is this video really a reaction to U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley?
• What else can you tell us about this video, and how do you know it?
