    According to Naftali’s website, he has worked for Netanyahu for five years.

    Hananya has been working for Prime Minister Netanyahu in his digital team for the past 5 years.

    While not a spokesperson exactly, definitely more than just an influencer.

      The core point is that he’s essentially a moronic propagandist, not an official spokesman making press releases for the IDF.

      An Israeli Candace Owens, basically. Yeah, he works for Bibi, but it’s not like he has access to IDF intel or is speaking for them.

        Owens did not work for Trump though. His job is actually to spin stories in a pro-Israel light. How much access to IDF intelligence he has, we do not know but he is certainly closer to Netanyahu in a work capacity than Owens was to Trump.

        Not saying that we should take his Tweet as 100% proof that Israel did the strike but it should also not completely be discounted. It most definitely was not an air strike like Hamas has stated.
