False claims circulate regarding an attack on Benjamin Netanyahu

Social media posts claiming that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was severely injured in an attack in Tel Aviv following election results are false.

Viral videos circulating on platforms like X falsely suggest that Netanyahu was attacked and required emergency transport to the United States via aircraft. Fact-checking investigations reveal that the footage used to support these claims actually depicts a brawl between members of parliament in the Armenian National Assembly that occurred on October 29.

There are no verified reports of any such attack on the Israeli Prime Minister, and the claims regarding his injury or medical evacuation are unfounded.
