Fact Check: Video Claiming Trump Suffered Stroke Due to Failed Military Strategy Against Iran is False
Jakarta (ANTARA/JACX) – A video uploaded on social media platform Facebook claims that US President Donald Trump suffered a stroke as a result of losing a military strategy in the conflict with Iran.
The post also includes a narrative stating that Trump’s health has deteriorated drastically after experiencing political pressure and failed operations in the Middle East.
The following is the narrative in the post:
“As a result of a ruptured blood vessel in the brain, Trump suffered a stroke; this was caused by losing the war strategy against Iran.”
However, is it true that Donald Trump suffered a stroke as a result of losing a military strategy against Iran?
Explanation:
Based on research, no information or official statements from the government or credible media outlets state that US President Donald Trump suffered a stroke as a result of losing a military strategy in the conflict with Iran.
The results of searching using Google Lens show that the video in the post is identical to this post regarding the evacuation of Donald Trump after a shooting incident occurred during the White House Correspondents’ Dinner event in Washington D.C., United States.
In the incident, Secret Service agents were seen securing Trump after the atmosphere at the event became panicked due to reports of gunfire.
The video is not related to the condition of a stroke or military conflict between the United States and Iran. In addition, to date, Donald Trump still appears to be actively carrying out public activities and there are no official reports that he has suffered a stroke.
Therefore, the claim that Donald Trump suffered a stroke as a result of losing a war strategy against Iran is false or a hoax.
