New Delhi/Washington: Social media posts circulating online have claimed that US President Donald Trump warned Iran by stating that the United States had “1,000 missiles locked and loaded” and was prepared to launch further strikes if Iran threatened international shipping or closed the Strait of Hormuz.
The posts surfaced after reports of anti-US protests in Iran, where demonstrators allegedly displayed slogans targeting the US President during public gatherings.
However, no official statement or verified post from President Trump has been cited to substantiate the reported remarks. As of now, there has been no confirmation from the White House or other official US government channels that Trump made the specific statement claiming “1,000 missiles” were ready to strike Iran.
The viral reports also claim that Trump called on Iran to publicly commit to keeping the Strait of Hormuz open and refrain from attacking commercial shipping. These assertions likewise remain unverified through official sources.
Given the heightened tensions in the Middle East, several unverified claims have circulated online in recent weeks. Readers are advised to rely on official government statements and credible news sources for confirmed information regarding developments involving the United States and Iran.
