Israeli military admit to posting AI photo of Lebanese journalist it killed
The Foreign Press Association has accused the Israeli military of discrediting a Lebanese journalist it killed in March, by using an AI-generated photo to present him as a “terrorist.” Ali Shoeib - a journalist for Hezbollah-affiliated Al-Manar TV - was killed in an Israeli airstrike in southern Lebanon. The IDF shared an edited photo of him in Hezbollah uniform with no evidence he was a combatant, admitting to Fox News it was "photoshopped." Vedika Bahl explains in Truth or Fake.
