Rumors of the death of the Chief of Staff of the Occupation Army, "Halevy", cause panic in Israel

Rumors of the death of IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi have spread widely on social media, following a Hezbollah drone attack that struck Israel near the Binyamina area on Sunday evening.

Reports about Halevi began spreading quickly after the attack, which left more than 60 injured, according to the Jerusalem Post.

Reportedly, “Halevy assassination reports” began circulating on X shortly after the attack, with X accounts with large followings beginning to share their theories about Halevy’s death.

Dr. Anastasia Maria Lopes, a verified social media personality with over a million followers, posted that Halevi's death had been confirmed.

"Initial reports confirm the assassination of the Chief of Staff of the Israeli Army, Herzi Halevi," Lopes wrote with a picture of Halevi.

American commentator Jackson Hinkle posted on the X website that Halevi had been assassinated, according to unconfirmed reports.

Henkel, who has more than two million followers on the X platform, added that the assassination of the chief of staff was carried out using “advanced drones.”

Additionally, the verified account SilencedSirs posted an image of a drawing that showed senior Israeli military and government leaders with a large red X over Halevi's face, appearing under the word "eliminated."

Meanwhile, researcher and journalist Suleiman Ahmed, who has more than half a million followers, shared the inaccurate news about Halevi’s killing, attributing the credit to “unconfirmed reports.”
