Several X accounts cite Israel Hayom and Benzinga, and one repeats a Bloomberg line, but no US or Iranian official has confirmed the terms or that any deal exists. Rubio and Iran's foreign ministry publicly describe talks as stalled.

The post says 'reportedly' and gives no named source or statement. I found no wire report carrying this threat.

Posts on X show the school's entrance burning on Friday morning. No major outlet I checked has confirmed whether students were inside or in danger, and I could not verify any evacuation count.

Debunked? questions whether the debunking is supported; it does not confirm the underlying rumor. The cited IsraelRealtime post describes reported contingency planning for a possible strike, not a promise that a strike would occur on Nov. 4. A strike not occurring would not disprove the existence of plans, and this citation does not establish the draft's claim that no large strike occurred that day. Whether those contingency plans existed remains independently unverified in this check.
Where seen: X news summary
Debunked? questions whether the debunking is supported; it does not confirm that the video shows a US attack on Iran. The cited X trending page is an AI-generated summary asserting that the footage shows Russia's Afipsky refinery. That summary is not an independent fact-check or an original-footage comparison. This check has not established the video's location or provenance, so neither the Iran claim nor the proposed Afipsky identification is definitively verified.
