<\/p>\nThis is the moment GB News fan-favourite Ben Leo steps into a North London kebab shop that went viral this week for using footage of Iranian missiles striking Tel Aviv, Israel to promote its food.<\/p>\n
Ben walked in to ask the only man behind the till about the shocking marketing ploy which has drawn mixed reaction.<\/p>\n
Iran\u2019s missiles have rained down on Israel on a daily basis since a wide-ranging Israeli attack on the Islamic republic\u2019s nuclear installations and military bases.<\/p>\n
Since the start of the conflict, deaths and injuries have been recorded in Israel with Iran even striking a hospital in the town of Beersheba earlier this week.<\/p>\n
Ben Leo spoke to one of the kebab shop’s workers after a video it posted to TikTok went viral<\/p>\n
GB NEWS \/ TIKTOK \/ Labanesegrill.nw1<\/p>\n
Lebanese Grill in Harlesden, North London, used footage of a strike on Tel Aviv to share its kebab range.<\/p>\n
The video intersperses footage of the impact with more humble surroundings from inside the kebab shop where workers are seen welcoming customers and preparing food.<\/p>\n
LATEST DEVELOPMENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n Ben wanted to know if using the grisly footage was appropriate given the scale of death and destruction in the Middle East.<\/p>\n The worker he spoke to refused to take any responsibility, dismissing it as a \u201csilly\u201d clip.<\/p>\n WATCH: Terrifying moment Iranian missiles rain down on Tel Aviv as Israelis rush for safety<\/p>\n Ben asked if the worker supports Hezbollah, a proscribed Lebanese terror group<\/p>\n GB NEWS<\/p>\n As the conversation progressed, he then appeared to suggest he felt the video was relatively inoffensive.<\/p>\n \u201cThen why are you denying it\u2019s yours?\u201d, Ben responded. \u201cThis is the TikTok for the shop, we have some TikTokkers come in here and film the food\u201d, he responded.<\/p>\n \u201cDo you support Hezbollah?\u201d, Ben responded. \u201cI support this country because I am working here and living here\u201d, said the worker.<\/p>\n Asked how he feels about Iran bombing Israel, he refused to comment. The worker then asked Ben why people would be \u201cupset\u201d about the video.<\/p>\n Lebanese Grill is a popular North London spot<\/p>\n GB NEWS<\/p>\n \u201cI think it\u2019s the missile hitting civilians\u201d, Ben responded. \u201cI think your food looks good, but some people are asking why you need to include ballistic missiles dropping on civilians.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t know\u201d, said the worker. \u201cI don\u2019t make the videos. It\u2019s an account for the shop, no one from the shop posted it.<\/p>\n \u201cThe people come here and make videos for us. They have access to our account. I\u2019ll be honest with you, it was not me.\u201d<\/p>\n Despite being informed of the clip\u2019s context, the worker continued to state he \u201csees nothing wrong\u201d with the video and described the ballistic missile as a \u201cfire\u201d.<\/p>\n Ben Leo went to Harlesden to find out more about the shop<\/p>\n GB NEWS<\/p>\n When asked if he supports Hezbollah, a Lebanese terror group, he smirked and said \u201cI don\u2019t support anyone. I support God and my work. That\u2019s it.\u201d<\/p>\n Speaking about his experience doorstepping the now controversial kebab shop, Ben said: \u201cThe guy didn\u2019t make it and doesn\u2019t know who had the username and password to the account but he doesn\u2019t seem to care the video is on there anyway.<\/p>\n \u201cThere\u2019s lots of support from customers here. Selling kebabs, chips, accompanied by a good dollop of Iranian ballistic missiles.\u201d<\/p>\n GB News has approached Lebanese Grill for comment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This is the moment GB News fan-favourite Ben Leo steps into a North London kebab shop that went…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":206707,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7757],"tags":[748,393,4884,257,12,16,1259,15,6225,263],"class_list":{"0":"post-206706","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-london","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-london","12":"tag-news","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-uk-news","15":"tag-united-kingdom","16":"tag-video-news","17":"tag-world-news"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114730595022056621","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/206706","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=206706"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/206706\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/206707"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=206706"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=206706"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=206706"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Lebanese](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/lebanese-grill-worker-speaks-to-ben-leo.png\")
