Iranian outlet publishes footage of Israel doomsday clock that IDF said it destroyed
Despite Israel’s claim that it destroyed a digital display in central Tehran counting down to its destruction, Iran’s semi-official Mehr news outlet publishes what it says is a video showing the doomsday clock still ticking.
The outlet claims that the video was taken this afternoon, following Israel’s announcement that it had hit the clock, along with other “regime targets and governmental repression” units in the Iranian capital. There is no way to verify the authenticity of the video or the claim of when it was filmed. The Iranian regime tightly controls images showing the effects of Israel’s airstrikes.
The digital timekeeper sits (or sat) atop a small billboard in Tehran’s Palestine Square counting down the days to September 2040, which is when Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei predicted there will no longer be a State of Israel.
According to the clock in the video, Israel has 5,569 days left.
