Following the reports that emerged on Sunday regarding the helicopter crash of President Ebrahim Raisi, social media users in Israel celebrated the death of the Iranian leader.

One of the jokes that garnered success stated, "The pilot is a Mossad agent named Eli Kopter.” The joke spread quickly and reached social networks around the world. Many users, unaware that it was a joke, took it seriously, and many even shared it as a sign of the success of Israeli intelligence.

For example, a presenter on the French-language Israeli news channel i24news quoted the story based on a Telegram channel post. The social media platform Reddit also cited the story from the same Telegram channel - which generated an entire discussion about the success of Israeli intelligence, alongside those who immediately recognized that it was a joke and responded accordingly ("The co-pilot was Avi Ron" ).

In parallel, according to a report on Iran International, the conspiracy theories surrounding the Mossad's involvement in the event did not stop there, and the out-of-control joke reached the official Hamas Telegram channel, which cited it as a fact.
