The Israeli Minister of Defense has been killed by Iran.
Analysis
The claim that the Israeli Minister of Defense has been killed by Iran is not supported by the available sources. Multiple recent reports, including direct statements from Israeli officials and spokespersons, explicitly deny the death of Defense Minister Yoav Gallant following Iranian missile attacks. While there is ongoing conflict involving missile strikes and casualties on both sides, no credible evidence or trusted sources confirm the death of the Israeli Defense Minister. The sources mentioning the claim are either unclear, outdated, or focused on other figures or events. Overall, the consensus among the examined sources is that the claim is false.
