Images of an Israeli F-35 Fighter Jet Shot Down by Iran Are Fake

Social media is spreading images purported to be of an Israeli F-35 stealth fighter shot down by Iran. However, verification has shown that this may be a fake or AI-generated image.

Recently, Iran claimed to have shot down three Israeli F-35s and captured a pilot, amid escalating conflicts between the two nations.

Immediately after, a user uploaded an image on June 16, showing a giant F-35 fighter jet with its left wing broken, surrounded by dozens of people.
