Israel Defense Forces launches investigation into claims in Israeli media that Jewish Chronicle published stories based on 'fabricated intelligence' The London -based Jewish Chronicle is the world’s oldest Jewish newspaper.

Among the most controversial claims published by the Jewish Chronicle was that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar might be preparing to flee to Iran with Israeli hostages.

The Jewish Chronicle report was amplified on social media by Netanyahu ’s son Yair .

Several days after it first appeared, Netanyahu 's wife repeated the claim that hostages could be taken to Iran , in a meeting with hostage relatives.

However, when confronted in a recorded phone call by a journalist, Perry appeared to concede in an angry exchange.
