Tehran (Monitoring Desk): Iran’s news agency Tasnim News published a report suggesting that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu might have been injured or killed. However, no concrete evidence was provided to support this claim.
The report cited the absence of new videos of Netanyahu, heightened security around his residence, and the postponement of some diplomatic meetings as reasons for speculation. It also referenced former US intelligence officer Scott Ritter, who claimed that Iran targeted a possible location of Netanyahu and that his brother was killed in the attack. Tasnim News itself noted that there is no official confirmation or denial of this claim.
Available information indicates that Netanyahu issued an official statement on March 7 and visited a strike site in Bersheba on March 6. Israeli officials have previously dismissed such claims as “fake news.” Analysts note that incomplete information or rumors often give rise to conspiracy theories in wartime situations.
