Yousafzai first came to prominence at age 11 for blogging about her life under the Pakistani Taliban. In 2012, at the age of 15, she survived a gunshot to the head by a Taliban gunman.
Yousafzai quickly became a global advocate for female education and in 2014 became the youngest ever Nobel Peace Prize laureate.
The same photo of Yousafzai was also shared alongside a similar claim on Facebook here and here, and on Twitter here, here, here, here, here and here.
The claim is false.
A reverse image search on Google found the photo shows Yousafzai with Faisal Iqbal, a famed Pakistani cricket player.
Iqbal published the photo on his verified Facebook page here on December 19, 2019. The post's caption reads in part: "Good to catch up a surprise Visit of Malala Fund at the US OPEN Cricket. A keen Cricket Follower, Enjoyed Discussing Cricket With her!"

Iqbal then reposted the photo on his official Twitter account here on July 12, 2020, in a tweet wishing Yousafzai a happy birthday.
On July 22, 2020, Iqbal published a video on Twitter here addressing the false claims that the photo shows Yousafzai with an Israeli man.
"You can keep all your likes, dislikes, jealousy, hatred aside but nobody has to call anyone Jew, non-Muslim or non-Pakistan," Iqbal says in the video.
