Fact Check: President-elect Donald Trump has said that he will lift all restrictions on deliveries to Israel on his first day in office, this would include military equipment, according to Fox News . This comes as Israel is considering a 60-day ceasefire with Hezbollah, but would only be enacted if Israel halts military action for a short time, the outlet reported.
An X image shows a city, purportedly Tel Aviv, with a fire blazing. Taken at nighttime, the flame stands out among city lights, large plumes of smoke billowing into the sky above. “The most beautiful image of the day,” the post’s caption reads.
“Tel Aviv is burning.” This photo is miscaptioned, however. The image originates from a March 22 Jordan Daily article with the headline, “Shooting and blast reported inside concert hall in Moscow region.
” Inside Crocus City concert hall, three men attacked and most likely used an explosive that set the building aflame. The image can also be seen in an article written by Focus News in Bulgarian. The attack left 137 people dead and over 180 injured, according to the Associated Press .
Russian President Vladimir Putin condemned it as “a bloody, barbaric terrorist act,” the outlet reported. (RELATED: Video Claims To Show Smoke Above Tel Aviv Buildings) Check Your Fact reached out to Jordan Daily for comment..
