Hoax! Prabowo allows Israel to test missiles in Indonesia

A post on social media platform TikTok featured a screenshot of an article seemingly quoting Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto regarding permission for Israel to conduct missile tests in Indonesia. The post narrated that Prabowo allowed Israel to test missiles in Indonesian territory on the condition that the missiles remain on target. The narrative in the post read: “Prabowo: Israel May Test Missiles in Indonesia As Long As They Stay on Target”.

However, is it true that Prabowo permitted Israel to conduct missile tests in Indonesia?

Based on investigation, no information or official statement from the government was found indicating that President Prabowo Subianto allowed Israel to conduct missile tests in Indonesia. Search results show that the screenshot used in the post is identical to an article from this media outlet titled “Prabowo Reaps Pros and Cons, But Has Already Done 3 Big Things for the People”.

The article discusses the views of public policy observer Muhammad Said Didu, who appreciated several policies of President Prabowo Subianto amidst various pros and cons developing in society. In the original article, there is no statement regarding permission for Israel to conduct missile tests in Indonesia. The circulating title and narrative are the result of editing that does not match the actual content of the article.

Thus, the claim stating that President Prabowo Subianto allowed Israel to conduct missile tests in Indonesia is false information or a hoax.
