Old Images Shared as Recent Protests Against Netanyahu
Some people on social media shared old pictures and said they were from recent protests in Israel where people were asking for the Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, to step down.
However, these pictures are not new and do not show recent events.
It's important to check if the information we see online is true before sharing it.
Old images are being shared as recent visuals of protests against Israeli PM Netanyahu.
A premium X (formerly Twitter) handle shared the photos with a misleading caption.
The images do not depict recent protests but are being presented as such.
Social media users claimed the images show Israelis demanding Netanyahu's resignation.
The viral posts are misleading as the images are not from current events.
