- A video circulating on social media claims to show the U.S. military dropping bunker-buster bombs on the Iranian city of Isfahan.
- The footage is shared alongside purported satellite images with red circles, alleged to indicate explosion heat signatures in the city.
- Misbar is analyzing the authenticity of these claims, as such videos often spread rapidly during periods of heightened geopolitical tension.
In a war of deepfakes, can we ever truly verify what is happening on the ground in Iran? If the U.S. has a global explosion detection system, why is the Isfahan bomb claim still unconfirmed? Is Iran's enriched uranium still secure, or did the alleged bunker-buster attack breach its vaults? Do recent strikes on Iran's ancient palaces and mosques now constitute prosecutable war crimes? With a ceasefire in place, why would the U.S. risk war by bombing a key Iranian nuclear site? Are AI propaganda bots a greater threat to global stability than the bombs they report on?
