“History : First video of the Israeli Iron Beam, new laser air defense system, intercepting enemy rockets, from today”, reads the caption of a Facebook post sharing the gameplay footage. The video was also misrepresented on X social media, by an account impersonating Mossad, Israel’s intelligence service. Pavel Krizka, public relations manager at Bohemia Interactive, which developed the Arma 3 game, said in an email that the miscaptioned video online contains footage from Arma 3. Reuters Fact Check has previously reported on Arma 3 gameplay footage being misrepresented as authentic war imagery after violence between Hamas and Israel broke out on Oct 7. The video shows gameplay footage from Arma 3, not Israel’s "Iron Beam" intercepting rockets amidst the Israel-Hamas war in 2023.
