Rumors claiming Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had been killed in an Iranian attack spread on social media. Netanyahu responded by sharing a video that appeared to mock the claims.
Claims circulating on social media that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had died in an Iranian attack drew widespread attention. Netanyahu responded by posting a video online in which he was seen buying coffee, appearing to make light of the rumors about his death.
Coffee video shared on social media
In the video he posted on his social media account, Netanyahu is seen getting coffee. During the recording, he says, “I’m dying for coffee,” a remark widely interpreted as a sarcastic reference to the reports claiming he had died.
Response to “six fingers” claim
Another claim circulating online suggested that Netanyahu appeared to have six fingers in footage from a press conference. In the video he shared, Netanyahu raised both hands and showed all ten fingers, seemingly addressing the claim in a humorous way.
Prime Minister’s Office had already denied the claims
Before Netanyahu released the video, the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office had already dismissed the reports suggesting that he had died, stating that the claims were false.
