HIBAPRESS – Follow-up
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a video on Sunday refuting claims circulating on social media platforms that he appeared with six fingers on his right hand during a press conference he held last week.
Netanyahu appeared in the video in a cafe, drinking a beverage, where he deliberately showed his hands to the camera, asking followers to examine them carefully to confirm the falsity of the circulated reports.

Netanyahu said sarcastically while clearly displaying his palms: "Do you want to count the fingers? Can you show us? Here they are, here they are. Did you see? Very beautiful."
Photos and videos that were widely circulated in the past few days had sparked controversy, with users claiming the existence of an "extra finger" on the prime minister's hand.
