If He’s Alive… Iran Vows to Hunt and Kill Netanyahu Amid Shocking Death Rumors

TEHRAN – Tensions in the Middle East reached a fever pitch on the 16th day of the conflict as Iran’s Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) issued a chilling ultimatum against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

In an official statement released Sunday, the IRGC vowed to "pursue and kill" the 76-year-old leader with "full force," labeling him a "child-killing criminal." The threat comes amid a blackout of confirmed public appearances by Netanyahu, sparking global speculation regarding his safety and whereabouts.

The "Six Fingers" Mystery: AI or Reality?

The internet has been flooded with conspiracy theories following a video released on March 12. Alert social media users flagged what appeared to be a digital glitch: Netanyahu seemingly had six fingers on one of his hands in the footage.

This has led to widespread claims that the video was a "Deepfake" or edited using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to hide the fact that the Prime Minister may be incapacitated.

"Why is his office releasing and deleting fake AI videos of him?" asked American commentator Candace Owens on X (formerly Twitter). "Where is Bibi?"

Official Denials Amidst Silence

In response to the mounting "assassination" rumors, Netanyahu’s office spoke to Turkey’s Anadolu Agency, dismissing the reports as "fake news" and asserting that the Prime Minister is "fine."

However, skeptics point to several red flags:

• No Live Appearances: Despite the denials, Netanyahu has not appeared in a live, unedited broadcast for several days.

• Family Silence: His son, Yair Netanyahu—usually a prolific social media user—has been uncharacteristically silent since March 9.

• Deleted Content: Reports suggest that his office has been uploading and then quickly deleting media, fueling the "mass panic" narrative.

A Region in Chaos: The US-Israel-Iran War

The current war was ignited last month after a massive joint US-Israeli airstrike on Iran on February 28, which resulted in the death of the 86-year-old Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

• The Retaliation: Iran has since launched waves of strikes against Israel and US military bases across the Gulf.

• The Toll: Over 2,000 people have been killed so far, with the majority of casualties reported within Iranian borders.

• The New Leadership: Iran has transitioned to a new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, who was recently the target of a veiled threat from Netanyahu before the Prime Minister's recent "disappearance."

As blasts continue to be reported in major hubs like Dubai and Kuwait, the world remains on edge, waiting for proof of life from the Israeli leadership to either calm or confirm the growing global anxiety.
