Trump Posts AI Images Depicting Kharg Strike and Iranian Tanker Seizure

U.S. President Donald Trump posted a series of AI-generated images depicting attacks on Iran while the halt in U.S.-Iranian strikes entered a second day. One image, labeled “Strike on Kharg,” showed aircraft and warships attacking Iran’s main oil-export island; another declared “It’s Our Oil Tanker Now!” and pictured Trump raising an American flag on a tanker bearing Iran’s flag. A later post depicted an Iranian tanker ablaze under the words “No More Engines.” The posts appeared as intermediaries continued exchanging messages and both Washington and Tehran gave diplomacy more time.
