Where did the viral “All eyes on Rafah” image come from?

Two people from Malaysia both say they used Microsoft Image Creator to produce the graphic in support of Palestinians.

It’s been shared over 50 million times now, and now NPR has spoken to both of them: Zila Abka, who months ago posted the version found by 404 Media on Facebook, and Amirul Shah, who shared the now-viral Instagram template.
