Fact-check

According to the investigation by the Rumor Scanner team, the video claiming to show coffins of Israelis killed in an Iranian attack is not real. In fact, the video was created using artificial intelligence (AI) technology.

During the investigation, several inconsistencies were observed in the video. For instance, one soldier appears to unnaturally run over the coffins, an action typically impossible for a real person. Similarly, some soldiers seem to vanish mid-step while walking, which is unnatural. Additionally, certain coffins appear to merge into each other, forming triangular shapes.

Due to these inconsistencies, the video was analyzed using the deepfake detection tool DeepFake-o-meter. The tool confirmed that the video was 100% created using artificial intelligence.
