Fact check: Grok tells users fake Tel Aviv video is real
Three side-by-side frames show white smoke trails streaking across a blue sky over a city. Plumes of orange and grey smoke rise from the skyline. A red "FAKE" stamp is overlaid on the center frame. An Israeli flag hangs from a balcony.

Can you tell this video is fake? The AI chatbot Grok could not. It’s been viewed millions of times on platforms like X and Instagram, with claims it shows Iranian missiles hitting Tel Aviv.
