USA confirm "precision" attack against Iranian targets in the Strait of Hormuz and threaten with AI video

SIC Notícias31 August 2026 at 06:30

The United States confirmed having carried out a "precision" attack against Iranian targets in the Strait of Hormuz. The operation was conducted using drones and resulted in the destruction of two platforms located on Larak island.

The attack represents a significant escalation in tensions between the two countries in the region. The American authorities classified the operation as successful and surgical in nature.

Hours after the first attack, the President of the United States again directed threats at Iran. This time, he used an artificial intelligence-generated video that simulated bombings against Iranian territory.

The use of AI-created video for threats represents a new form of strategic communication by the American administration, combining technological capabilities with military and diplomatic pressure on Tehran.

The discussion extends to the geopolitical implications of birth rates and the power women hold over their fertility decisions, at a time when reproduction has become a political battleground in the United States.

Sánchez exonerates Morocco from the Ceuta crisis and insists on "hoaxes" on social networks "associated with Russia and Israel"

One month after the massive entry of migrants in Ceuta, the president of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, exonerated Morocco from any responsibility for the crisis, stating there is no "information" from the security forces, the CNI or intelligence services of other countries that suggests participation by the Moroccan authorities. During an interview on Cadena Ser, Sánchez defended that there was "instant and immediate" coordination with Morocco, whose police deployment at the border was essential to contain the migratory flow. In addition, the president insisted that the crisis was amplified by "hoaxes" (fake news) on social networks, which he associated with accounts linked to Russia and Israel.
