In a recent post on Truth Social, Donald Trump, the President of the United States, accused American media outlets of 'giving Iran false hope' regarding their military capabilities, labeling their coverage as treasonous. Trump criticized reports suggesting that Iran was successfully damaging US military bases, claiming that such narratives undermine American efforts. He asserted that Iran's military has been effectively destroyed by US and Israeli forces, stating that all of Iran's 159 ships are 'at the bottom of the sea' and that the country is an 'Economic Disaster.' Trump's remarks follow reports, including one from the Washington Post, indicating that Iranian airstrikes have caused damage to US military installations in the Gulf region since the war began on February 28. Additionally, it has been reported that Trump sought to issue subpoenas against journalists covering the conflict to uncover their sources.
