Rabbi Yosef Mizrachi openly suggesting that the rabbi justified killing children during discussions about war and terrorism.

Publisher’s rating: Misleading

The review says the viral clip and caption misrepresent Mizrachi’s remarks, which came from a livestream discussing biblical narratives and existential enemies. It reports that the full lecture included his describing the idea of killing children as “brainwashing” and warning of divine punishment for those who kill children. (S1)

Fact Crescendo Sri Lanka

Energy Minister Kumara Jayakody said the Navy will protect ships to prevent a fuel shortage caused by the Middle East war.

Publisher’s rating: Misleading

The review found no evidence that Jayakody made the circulating statement and said his media secretary confirmed he had not. It also reported that the Navy spokesperson described vessel protection in Sri Lanka’s territorial waters as a standing responsibility, not a special measure announced to prevent a fuel shortage.

In this post on X, a user claims that Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of Iran's recently assassinated supreme leader, was also killed in US strikes in Tehran. The post has 2.6 million views at the time of writing.
