Amid rumours about Benjamin Netanyahu’s death as the war between the US-Israel and Iran escalates, social media took a humorous turn as Israeli Prime Minister posted video of him sipping coffee.
On Sunday, Netanyahu posted a video on his official social media accounts to counter misinformation regarding his death, while enjoying a coffee in the video as a response to the speculation.
Despite the release of the video, public skepticism persisted as many labeled the move a calculated attempt at narrative control. Debates and theories have intensified online, with some questioning the video’s authenticity, it has been labeled as artificially generated and has now been dubbed “Coffeegate.”
Now, memes are surfacing on social media platforms after Netanyahu shared a video of himself drinking coffee at a cafe to debunk his death rumours, followed by another video of him meeting people.
A video was posted with the caption, “Netanyahu, Mojtaba Khamenei and Kim Jong-un meet at Sataf Café in Jerusalem.”
