ALBAWABA - After rumors regarding Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a Canadian journalist's post has sparked mixed reactions on social media.
A video shared of Netanyahu from a cafe sparked wide reactions online, with many claiming that the video was made by AI because in the video, the prime minister appeared with six fingers in his hand. However, Netanyahu released another video denying rumors of his death.
In response to allegations that the tape was not legitimate, he lifted his hand during the conversation and asked the cameraman if he wanted to count his fingers. Allegations spread online that Netanyahu was killed in an Iranian attack on Israel amid the ongoing tension between the two countries.
