Current front page of Fox News: It takes you here to a page titled "Antisemitism on campus surges as agitators take over", with the pinned post from Bradford Betz saying what the front page says.

Then you'd be surprised without evidence because that link still goes to a collection of stories Fox News labels terrorism, but not to any evidence. Fox News is lying yet again.

It’s being reported in other news media as well. The group is in telegram.

So by no evidence you mean you didn’t even do a google ?

No, I didn't Google because the link was on Fox News. Moreover, that link just goes to a headline sans article (unless I log in, I guess, which ain't happenin'). So, that's basically nothing. This link is probably the closest thing I found, but even still it just says:

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian expressed support for those speaking ill of Israel and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

But if expressing support is actively inciting anything, then conservative support for Israel's genocide of Palestinians is incitement of genocide. So, I'm willing to accept that framing, as false as it is, but I have a very strong feeling you and other conservatives would reject it out of hand...
