🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump posts an AI-generated video showing the destruction of Iran’s Kharg Island
Donald Trump shared on Truth Social a striking video showing massive explosions on Kharg Island, one of Iran’s main oil centers, along with the message that the island was being “reduced to rubble.”
But there’s a crucial detail: the video was artificially generated using artificial intelligence, and there is no evidence that Kharg was being attacked at that time. The White House and the Pentagon also did not confirm an attack on the island.
The post comes after the United States attacked Iranian positions on Larak Island in the Strait of Hormuz, and after Iran responded with attacks against U.S. targets in the region. Kharg is especially strategic: around 90% of Iran’s oil exports pass through it. (Reuters)
⚠️ The episode shows how AI is already part of the information war: images that look real can circulate amid a military crisis and create confusion about what is actually happening on the ground.
