Caught 'Iranian Zionist' getting talks points mid-debate, American commentator says

American commentator Jackson Hinkle has said he caught an "Iranian Zionist" getting talking points from an Israeli "media official in the middle of our debate".

During the debate, Younes Sadaghiani accidentally flashed a phone notification from a user whose name on the screen read, Lily Nioberg. Hinkle claimed the user worked with the Israeli foreign ministry.

"Ask my question," Nioberg's message on Sadaghiani's phone purportedly read, according to Hinkle.

However, Sadaghiani countered Hinkle saying "Nioberg is an account on X, she is a friend of mine and lives in the UK. She is Jewish."
