Israeli TikTok users have caused international outrage for posting videos mocking an Iranian anchor whose live broadcast was interrupted by an Israeli airstrike.
Israel and Iran have been firing dozens of missiles at each other after Israel launched a large-scale, unprovoked attack on Iran’s nuclear and military facilities on June 13.
On the fourth day of fighting between the two countries on June 16, Israel targeted the headquarters of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) in Tehran.
The attack disrupted the live transmission while TV anchor Sahar Emami was on air, causing explosions and smoke, with Emami seen running off screen after the blast.
In the latest TikTok trend, Israeli TikTok users dressed up as Emami and mocked her reaction — exaggerating it with dramatic screams and gestures — and even used fake smoke to recreate the moment of the blast.
The trend has sparked intense criticism online, with some saying it crosses a moral line by turning real violence into viral content. One person even called it a “celebration of war crimes.”
Israel has killed at least 224 people in Iran and injured 1,200 others since it began its strikes on the country on Friday, according to Iran’s health ministry.
