Video of panic in Tel Aviv predates Iran-Israel war
"Scenes of Israeli illegal immigrants running to shelters," reads a Malay-language Facebook post on June 14, 2025. The video shows a large group of people gathered in a square rushing to disperse with rows of overturned plastic chairs seen in the middle of the crowd. Text superimposed on the clip reads: "Colonizers running for shelter in Israel." The clip was shared elsewhere on Facebook with similar claims. The video surfaced after Israel fired missiles at Iranian nuclear and military facilities on June 13, while Iran retaliated with a barrage of missiles targeting Tel Aviv (archived link). US President Donald Trump announced that Israel and Iran had agreed to a truce that came into effect on June 24, which remains in place (archived link). Iranian officials said 1,060 people were killed in the country during the war, while Iran's attacks on Israel killed 28 people, according to Israeli figures (archived link). But the circulating video was filmed in April, before the war. A reverse image search led to an Instagram post by an Israeli news channel on April 30 which said the clip showed people in Tel Aviv panicking over a "mistaken terror attack" (archived link). "What began as a police arrest at Habima Square was mistaken for a terror attack, sending crowds fleeing in panic. 21 people were treated at Ichilov Hospital for shock and minor injuries. No shots were fired -- the incident was criminal, not terror-related," reads the post. A Google keyword search led to news reports on the incident which took place during Memorial Day event in Tel Aviv (archived link). According to the Times of Israel newspaper, the chaos broke out after a man was arrested on suspicion of trying to attack the police, but those gathered in the square mistook the incident as an unfolding security incident and started fleeing (archived link). AFP has debunked more misinformation related to the Iran-Israel conflict here.

Yemen fighters allied to exiled government claim seizure of tons of Iranian-supplied Houthi weapons
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Fighters allied to Yemen's exiled government claimed Wednesday they had seized 750 tons of Iranian-supplied missiles and weaponry bound for the country's Houthi rebels, the latest interdiction of arms in the country's decadelong war allegedly tied to Tehran. For years, the U.S. Navy and other Western naval forces have seized Iranian arms being sent to the Houthis, who have held Yemen's capital since 2014 and have been attacking ships in the Red Sea over the Israel-Hamas war. The seizure announced Wednesday, however, marked the first major interdiction conducted by the National Resistance Force, a group of fighters allied to Tariq Saleh, a nephew of Yemen's late strongman leader Ali Abdullah Saleh. The Houthis and Iran did not immediately acknowledge the seizure, which the National Resistance Force said happened in late June. A short video package released by the force appeared to show anti-ship missiles, the same kinds used in the Houthis' recent attacks that sank two ships in the Red Sea, killing at least four people as others remain missing. The footage also appeared to show Iranian-made Type 358 anti-aircraft missiles. The Houthis claim they downed 26 U.S. MQ-9 drones over the past decade of the Yemen war, likely with those missiles. The majority of those losses having been acknowledged by the U.S. military. The footage also appeared to show drone components, warheads and other weapons. The force said it would release a detailed statement in the coming hours. Iran denies arming the rebels, though Tehran-manufactured weaponry has been found on the battlefield and in sea shipments heading to Yemen for the Shiite Houthi rebels despite a United Nations arms embargo. The Houthis seized Yemen's capital, Sanaa, in September 2014 and forced the internationally recognized government into exile. A Saudi-led coalition armed with U.S. weaponry and intelligence entered the war on the side of Yemen's exiled government in March 2015. Years of inconclusive fighting has pushed the Arab world's poorest nation to the brink of famine. The war has killed more than 150,000 people, including fighters and civilians, and created one of the world's worst humanitarian disasters, killing tens of thousands more.
