Taking to Truth Social, the US President also accused Iran of Media Manipulation and said they "are really good at “feeding” the very appreciative Fake News Media false information."
Further blasting the Iranian media and accusing its authorities of misusing Artificial Intelligence (AI) Trump said, "Buildings and Ships that are shown to be on fire are not — It’s FAKE NEWS, generated by A.I. For instance, Iran, working in close coordination with the Fake News Media, shows our great USS Abraham Lincoln Aircraft Carrier, one of the largest and most prestigious Ships in the World, burning uncontrollably in the Ocean. Not only was it not burning, it was not even shot at — Iran knows better than to do that!".
