President Donald Trump, in posts Sunday and Monday on his Truth Social platform, promoted an artificial-intelligence video depicting an explosion at Iran’s Kharg Island and then accused Iran of having nothing but unflattering American press coverage, brutality toward its own demonstrators, and empty rhetoric. His remarks came as U.S. forces conducted their first known strikes in Iran since late July, targeting two launchers on Larak Island. A U.S. Central Command spokesman said Iranian Revolutionary Guard troops were preparing to fire rockets carrying sea mines into the Strait of Hormuz; CENTCOM said it had already cleared mines from shipping routes. Global oil prices rose about 3 percent Monday amid the six-month U.S.-Iran conflict, which has disrupted maritime traffic in the strategic waterway.
