Satirist mistaken for Israeli official over pager post claim

Original: Fact Check: Ivgeni Zarubinski Is NOT An Israeli Foreign Ministry Official Who Posted About Activating Pagers in Ireland -- He's A Satirist

A widely shared claim that Israeli Foreign Ministry official Ivgeni Zarubinski called for pagers to be activated in Ireland is false. Zarubinski is a satirist, not a government official, and fact checkers have debunked the mischaracterisation as misinformation.

Why now: Tensions over Israel-related disinformation and the pager attacks are driving viral false claims.
