Israeli PM Netanyahu is alive and active, debunking death rumors amid Middle East tensions.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is alive and active, according to his office, dismissing widespread online rumors of his death or injury amid heightened Middle East tensions. The speculation followed his absence from public events and a viral video showing him with six fingers—later explained as a visual distortion. His son Yair Netanyahu’s social media silence also fueled speculation, but officials confirm both are well. Israel continues military operations against Iran, with Netanyahu asserting significant progress in undermining Iran’s nuclear program. No credible evidence supports claims of assassination, cover-ups, or AI manipulation.
