A viral video claiming to show the moment Iran allegedly destroyed the US Navy fleet in Bahrain was created by an AI-generated account. The video, which also contained glitches, was published on X on March 4, 2026. The account had previously published another video showing Iran retaliating against the U.S.-Israeli attack. However, a closer examination of the footage revealed several inconsistencies, including a uniformed post-blast smoke, and a lack of missiles.
