Israeli PM’s Office Strongly Denies Rumors of Netanyahu’s Death in Iranian Retaliatory Strike

The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has categorically rejected circulating reports and social media claims alleging that he was killed during Iran’s recent retaliatory attacks against Israel.

In an official statement, the Prime Minister’s Office described the rumors as “fake news” and confirmed that Netanyahu is safe, alive, and continuing his duties amid the ongoing escalation in the Middle East conflict.

The speculation surged online following unverified posts suggesting Netanyahu may have been targeted in missile strikes, including claims linked to a purported attack on his office or residence in Jerusalem.

The denial comes as tensions remain high between Israel, Iran, and involved parties, with Iranian officials issuing strong statements vowing to pursue accountability.

The Prime Minister’s Office emphasized that such false narratives are part of broader efforts to sow confusion during the conflict. Netanyahu has continued public engagements and statements related to Israel’s defense operations in recent days.
