The use of AI-powered propaganda in the U.S.-Iran war is being used to create narratives both on the ground and in the digital world, with 99.9% of content contained AI-generated elements. The New York Times has identified over 110 distinct AI generated images and videos in the first two weeks of the conflict, and NewsGuard has tracked 50 false claims in the conflict's first 25 days, with an average of two per day. The most recent fakes were images of burning vehicles in Tel Aviv that actually showed the January 2026 protests in Tehran, Snopes debunking a new Iranian strike video on Tel Aviv as footage recycled from June 2025, and Chinese state media circulated a fake image claiming Iraqi resistance had downed a U.K. KC-135 refueling aircraft. Iran has also positioned its AI content towards American audiences, with IRGC-linked accounts flooding X, Instagram and Bluesky with AI-produced videos. The proliferation of fake videos has grown more subtle, making detection difficult. The White House and Iranian state broadcaster IRIB TV1 have a documented pattern of airing fabricated footage. The research firm Cyabra documented a pro-Iran campaign generating over 145 million views in days.
