A sudden video of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu inside a cafe in Tel Aviv has set the internet on fire, but not for the reason you might think. The clip surfaced online just as wild rumours about Netanyahu’s alleged assassination began spreading across social media platforms. Within hours, the cafe footage was being circulated by Bibi himself as “proof” that he was alive and well. But the moment the video went viral, a new twist emerged, claims that the clip itself might actually be an AI-generated deepfake. Discussions intensified after Grok, the AI chatbot available on X, weighed in. The chatbot initially avoided commenting on the authenticity of the footage before later suggesting that the clip could be an “advanced AI deepfake.” WATCH

The tension in West Asia escalates as the IRGC declare a deadly hunt for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, branding him a "child-killing criminal" and vowing to "eliminate him if alive." Footage released by the IRGC shows precision drone strikes allegedly targeting US military bases across UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan, intensifying fears of a broader conflict. As the war enters its sixteenth day, rumours about Netanyahu’s whereabouts have gone viral after he missed a key military briefing earlier this week, with viewers questioning a March 12 video that hinted at possible AI manipulation. Political commentators, including Candace Owens, have raised concerns over Netanyahu`s sudden disappearance, fueling speculation and panic in global media circles.
