Trump continues to threaten Iran with AI social media posts despite lull in fighting
President publishes fake images of US jets blowing up Kharg Island and taking over Iranian ships as oil markets rebound slightly on hopes of fresh truce
Despite a recent lull in fighting between the US and Iran, former US President Donald Trump continued to issue threats against Iran on Sunday, April 10, 2022. He posted several AI-generated images on Truth Social depicting the destruction and capture of Iranian ships and oil infrastructure, including an image captioned “STRIKE ON KHARG,” referring to Iran’s main oil export hub, and others stating “It’s Our Oil Tanker now!” These posts followed a two-day pause in airstrikes by both nations, reportedly due to US concerns about depleting its arsenal and running out of targets, though Trump denied these reports. Meanwhile, Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei reaffirmed support for Hezbollah, stating, “No path remains except jihad and resistance,” and conditioned any ceasefire on an end to Israeli attacks on Lebanon.
