AI-generated video falsely shows Iran attacking US city

A video circulating on social media falsely claims to show Iran retaliating against the United States with an attack in a US city.

The clip is likely AI-generated and unrelated to actual events; it gained 2.6 million views, 16,000 reactions, and 601 shares.

US forces struck Iran's Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan nuclear sites on June 22 as part of an operation to neutralize threats posed by the Iranian nuclear program.

Iran responded with missile strikes at a US military base in Qatar but stated it would not retaliate further unless there is another act of aggression from the United States.

The conflict between Israel and Iran has escalated, with recent attacks and retaliations, but the viral video falsely represents these events, contributing to misinformation.
