Amid the recent tensions between Hezbollah and Israel, social media buzzed with a photo claiming to show thousands of Afghan fighters from the Fatemiyoun Brigade arriving in Syria to potentially bolster Hezbollah's ranks. This claim was attributed to the i24 TV channel.

An X user circulated the photo, along with the caption, “Thousands of additional Afghan fighters from the Fatemiyoun Brigade have arrived in Syria to bolster Hezbollah's ranks if needed - I24. It's already happening. After announcing just a few weeks ago, the Taliban are already fulfilling their promise. Taliban brigades are being formed and are preparing in Syria for the war with Israel. Next are the Houthis, who have a huge mobilization potential - 2 million reservists.”
