The propaganda, directly inscribed on the projectiles' fuselage, includes the stark warning: "America will be destroyed by Trump".
This visual provocation is part of what the commander of the IRGC Aerospace Force has defined as a "new phase of war", marked by the deployment of state-of-the-art missile units, specifically the Fateh and Kheibar Shekan models. The use of this iconography aims to point to the US president as the main responsible for the imminent regional catastrophe, in response to recent threats from the White House.
Tensions have escalated due to the ultimatum issued by Trump, who stated that "the entire country could be wiped out in one night" if Iran does not unblock the Strait of Hormuz by Tuesday night. The US president has declared readiness to bomb key infrastructures, such as bridges and power plants, if the transit of global oil through that route is not ensured.
While propaganda floods military bases, the conflict is already being fought with real fire. Tehran has been the target of a joint offensive by the US and Israel, and the Israeli army has confirmed the interception of missiles launched from Iran. Violence has also struck third countries: Saudi Arabia intercepted seven ballistic missiles in its eastern region, and an Iranian drone caused the death of a couple when it hit a house in Iraqi Kurdistan.
