A Hindi-language
Facebook post shared on March 20, 2026, claimed that Iran attacked Israel, targeting Mossad headquarters, military camps, oil tankers, and bunkers, and included a video purportedly showing the impact of an Iranian missile. The video also circulated on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, and X.
Verdict
Reverse image searches on Google show that the video has been previously shared in a post from
November 15, 2025, in Portuguese. The footage shows a massive fire and explosion in Ezeiza, Argentina, at an industrial park roughly 40 km from Buenos Aires.
On November 14, 2025, an industrial park in Ezeiza, including the Sinteplast facility, experienced powerful explosions. More than 20 people sustained minor injuries. Video footage shows employees running from the blast, and images match satellite views of the Sinteplast site.
The video circulating in March 2026 did not depict an Iranian missile strike or any incident in Israel. It was falsely used to suggest Iranian retaliation after a joint US-Israel attack that killed Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei on February 28, 2026.
