Iran State Media Caught Using Recycled Black Sea Images in Hormuz Incident
🛰️ IRNA — Iran's state media recycled Ukrainian war photos to document a live Hormuz event. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: IRNA released imagery within 30 min of the UKMTO Khasab advisory — now identified as Turkish-sourced photos from Black Sea shadow fleet strikes. That's fabricated evidence during active negotiations. Every IRNA visual claim since Hormuz closed now carries a verification debt. US and Gulf intelligence will recalibrate what Iran's operational picture actually shows — and what it's hiding.
