This is the moment Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu took to social media to shut down bizarre speculation over his health.
Mr Netanyahu had been notably absent from a high-level military council meeting on March 14 – sparking theories about where he might be.
Then, social media conspiracy theories exploded after a misinterpreted camera angle in a March 12 press conference made it appear to some that the Israeli PM had six fingers.
Anti-Israel commentators claimed the clip was doctored – and jumped to the conclusion that he had been killed in an Iranian strike.
Mr Netanyahu shared a clip from a coffee shop in Israel on Sunday declaring he was not, in fact, dead.
After laughing off claims that he was, the PM then held up his hand to show off how many fingers he had.
“Your resilience gives strength to me,” he told viewers. “It gives strength to the Government, to the IDF, to the Mossad.”
