Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu Denies Death Rumors, Says Iran Decimated

"I'm Alive": Refutes Six-Finger Video Hoax

When speaking to the media, Netanyahu took a moment to refute the conspiracy theories surrounding his supposed death, stating, “First of all, I just want to say I'm alive, and you're all witnesses.” These rumors had gained traction online after some users claimed that his televised address on March 12 was not genuine, pointing out an odd visual anomaly where he appeared to have six fingers on one hand.

Iran Can't Enrich Uranium or Build Missiles Now

During the press briefing on Thursday, Netanyahu described Iran as being “decimated,” asserting that the Islamic Republic no longer possessed the means to enrich uranium or produce ballistic missiles. “We are winning, and Iran is being decimated,” he said, while also praising his coordination with US President Donald Trump.

No Clue Who's Running Iran Now

When asked about the future leadership of Iran following the Israeli strikes that killed top regime officials, Netanyahu expressed uncertainty about who is currently in charge.
He referred to Mojtaba , the newly appointed successor to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed in an airstrike on the first day of the conflict, noting, “Mojtaba has not shown his face.”

Won't Bomb Iran Oil, Gas Facilities

Netanyahu characterized Israel's actions against senior Iranian leadership as a strategic move to weaken the regime from within. He assured President Trump that he would not target Iran's oil and natural gas facilities. However, when pressed on whether he would halt military actions if the U.S. were to hesitate in response to rising oil prices, he chose not to give a direct answer.

West Must Fight Iran's Evil Axis

He also countered claims that Israel had drawn the United States into the conflict, insisting that Trump was already fully aligned with their military campaign. Netanyahu warned that in about a year, Iran could develop intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching both Israel and the United States. He argued that the West must reassert itself against what he termed the axis of evil led by Iran.
