Community leaders are sounding the alarm after Tyler Oliveira was spotted filming in Monsey on Friday afternoon alongside MillaNews, a platform widely criticized for promoting anti-Jewish narratives.

The appearance comes on the heels of what community members describe as a slanderous online hit piece targeting Kiryas Yoel, raising concerns that the current filming is part of a coordinated effort to provoke, bait, and misrepresent Orthodox Jewish communities. Local askanim are urging residents not to engage in any on-camera interactions, warning that selective editing and deceptive framing are often used to twist words and manufacture controversy.

“Do not give them soundbites,” one community leader said. “Their goal is not dialogue or truth, it’s clicks, outrage, and making Jews look bad.”

Residents are encouraged to continue their routines, avoid confrontation, and report any concerns to the police. Officials stress that engagement only fuels the narrative these provocateurs seek to push, and that the strongest response is calm, unified non-participation.
