Accounts on \u201cx\u201d published\u00a0a photo<\/a>\u00a0of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with two of his advisors, claiming that it documents the moment the order was given to assassinate Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah from inside the United Nations building and in the presence of an American general.<\/p>\n\n\n

Kashif verified the photo via the \u201cINVID\u201d tool and found that the claim is misleading. The photo was taken at Netanyahu\u2019s residence in a hotel in New York, not at the UN headquarters. American newspaper Breitbart<\/a>\u00a0reported in a report published on 27 September 2024 that the photo was taken at Netanyahu\u2019s residence in a hotel in New York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Washington-based journalist Hadeel Owais also confirmed that the photo was taken inside the hotel where Netanyahu is staying in New York, not in the United Nations building or the Israeli embassy in Washington, which takes 5 hours by plane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for the presence of an American general standing next to Netanyahu, it turned out that this claim is also false. Kashif’s Israeli affairs team examined the photo published by the Prime Minister\u2019s Office and found that the person standing next to him, wearing a formal suit, is Tzachi Barvarman, Netanyahu\u2019s chief of staff, while the person wearing the military suit is General Roman Goffman, the military secretary of the Prime Minister\u2019s Office, and not an American general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Israeli occupation army<\/a>\u00a0launched extensive air strikes yesterday afternoon, Friday 27 September 2024, targeting 6 buildings in the southern suburb, and Israeli media reported that the target was Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah, while Hezbollah media did not publish any statement about Hassan Nasrallah\u2019s fate at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Israeli occupation army<\/a>\u00a0announced in a statement on 28 September 2024 the assassination of Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah and Ali Karaki following the targeting of Hezbollah headquarters in the southern suburb of Beirut on Friday, 27 September 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
