| Description: | Does a viral picture of what looks like an Israeli passport confirm that Volodymyr Zelenskyy became an Israeli citizen before he became president of Ukraine? No, that’s not true: The image got the spelling of his last name wrong. The machine-readable text on the bottom of the first page didn’t fit the internationally standardized form, either. |
