Fact Check: Video of Israelis jumping from burning house is old, not from Israel-Iran war
While a tense and fragile ceasefire is in place now, social media is still buzzing with videos allegedly showing the Israel-Iran conflict.

The Hebrew caption translates to: "17 injured in fire at a rental villa in Tiberias, including 11 children. Several were recorded jumping from the second floor in an attempt to escape the fire, and 5 were moderately injured."This made it clear that the video is not related to the recent conflict, which began in June. A link to a news report was also attached to the caption. It mentioned that a rental villa in Tiberias caught fire on the morning of March 1. The first floor was completely burned down, and some of the people trapped inside jumped from the second floor.

'Raised his voice': Report reveals tense call between Trump, Netanyahu
Trump raised his voice at Netanyahu, as 'Israeli' fighter jets entered Iranian airspace Tuesday morning to strike targets in response to the Iranian missiles that some claim were fired after the fragile ceasefire took place, a report by The Jerusalem Post said citing a source familiar with the details. 'Stop the attack!' Trump told Netanyahu during the call, raising his voice. The report said that Netanyahu was not able to speak much during the tense call, despite repeatedly expressing his gratitude to Trump. 'It was a tough conversation between Netanyahu and President Trump. Trump viewed this as a personal achievement, and made it clear that no one – absolutely no one – would undermine it,' the source told The Jerusalem Post. 'Israeli' fighter jets then received orders to stop the raids, and instead hit a radar station near Tehran. The United States also sent a tense warning to Iran via the Qataris, urging them to stop the fire. 'No nonsense, no further attacks,' the senior US official said to the Qataris to relay the message through to the Iranians.

Israel accuses Iran of breaking ceasefire, threatens deep retaliation
Tensions reignited across West Asia on Tuesday after Iran launched missiles at northern Israel, just hours after a US-brokered ceasefire was meant to take effect. In response, Israel vowed a forceful retaliation, accusing Tehran of violating the truce. However, Iran has denied breaking the terms of the ceasefire. The state TV reported that the Iranian government said they have not launched any missile at Israel after the ceasefire was announced. The escalation came shortly after US President Donald Trump announced a 24-hour phased ceasefire set to begin at 0400 GMT (9:30 AM IST) on Tuesday, June 24. While Israel had publicly agreed to the proposal, Iran never officially confirmed its participation. Missile intercepted in early morning attack Israel threatens deep strikes in Tehran Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz said the military had been ordered to strike deep into Iranian territory. 'I instructed the Israeli army to respond forcefully to Iran's violation of the ceasefire by launching powerful strikes against regime targets in the heart of Tehran,' Katz said in an official statement. Netanyahu had declared unilateral pause The Iranian strike followed closely on the heels of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's unilateral declaration of a pause in hostilities, claiming success in what he called Operation 'Rising Lion'. 'The State of Israel achieved monumental historical successes and placed itself in line with the great powers of the world,' his office said. Netanyahu had also instructed ministers not to comment on the ceasefire following a late-night security cabinet meeting on Monday. Trump announced ceasefire after speaking to Netanyahu According to diplomatic sources cited by The Jerusalem Post, Trump had spoken with Netanyahu shortly before the Iranian strike. The ceasefire agreement was reportedly brokered by Qatar. Fragile truce collapses amid rising tensions However, the ceasefire quickly unravelled. With Israel now preparing a military response, the truce appears effectively void, raising fears of a broader regional confrontation in an already volatile zone.
