It does sound rather lurid, a bit like Saddam Hussein’s troops throwing Kuwaiti babies out of incubators (which turned out to have been made up for selling Operation Desert Storm).
Of course, that’s not ruling it out, though it does feel like someone at some stage may have over-egged the pudding.
The Australian Government also had a "children being thrown overboard by asylum seekers coming by boat" scandal. I wonder how many others there have been.

basically asylum seekers were passing their babies off a sinking boat to border patrol authorises and the government cropped it to make it look like they were throwing their kids overboard to shed weight and save themselves
Wow
yeah so that was our conservative government. no surprises there aye?
It's one of the oldest tricks in the book. Preying on parental instinct is stupidly easy.
Yeah, blood libel never gets old, sadly.
