US President Donald Trump denies reports that the US is running out of munitions in its fight against Iran.
“We have far more munitions than anyone in the world, and far more than we need,” he tells the Wall Street Journal.
The US president also shares multiple images threatening Iran’s energy infrastructure on his Truth Social platform.
One of the images shared by Trump is an AI-generated photo of warplanes bombing an oil facility with the caption “STRIKE ON KHARG,” referring to Iran’s Kharg Island, the main oil export hub for the Islamic Republic.

Trump then posted several images in quick succession, all captioned “It’s Our Oil Tanker now!”
Each one shows an AI-generated image of Trump holding an American flag on an apparently Iranian ship. One version of the post features US soldiers in it as well, and another features both soldiers and what appears to be a depiction of Iranian religious leaders.
He follows up these posts with another captioned “NO MORE ENGINES,” featuring an Iranian ship being blown up.
