No Evidence Israel Tracked Ismail Haniyeh via WhatsApp Spyware to Drone Strike Him

Following Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh's assassination in Iran, several social media users shared a claim alleging that Israeli intelligence tracked Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh's location via WhatsApp to drone strike him.

In a post viewed over 1.3 million times on X, a user alleged that, "BREAKING: ISRAELI INTELLIGENCE TRACKED HAMAS LEADER ISMAIL HANIYEH THROUGH WHATSAPP. Israeli intelligence successfully infiltrated Haniyeh's phone by sending a WhatsApp message containing spyware. This allowed them to determine the precise location of Haniyeh's residence, enabling a drone to target and launch a missile strike on the house."
