President Trump shared a photo of American strategic bombers on Twitter roughly an hour before the overnight strikes in Iran, according to a report. The tweet appears to be a signal of U.S. military posture.
President Donald Trump posted a picture of American strategic bombers on Twitter roughly an hour before the overnight strikes in Iran, according to a report from the Abu Ali Express the source. The tweet, shared early Monday, represents a new social media venue for such signaling, following earlier posts on Truth Social on Sunday evening.
The Zioneer reported on Sunday, July 12, at 22:59 Jerusalem that Trump had first posted footage of B-2 and B-1 bombers on Truth Social, followed by additional still photos of the same aircraft. Within minutes, an analysis described the posts as part of a pressure campaign to return Tehran to negotiations, while also raising the possibility of escalation. A related bulletin at 23:20 Jerusalem reinforced that assessment.
The Zioneer has documented a broader pattern of Trump using social media to signal military intent. On July 9, he was reported to have shared an image of an Israeli bomb striking oil reserves. On June 13, he tweeted 'Next target?' amid escalating airstrikes. Analysts have described this as a deliberate strategy to pressure Iran.
The report of the tweet comes from a single source, and the precise timing of the tweet relative to the strikes has not been independently confirmed. The specific aircraft in the image and the full scope of the overnight strikes remain unclear.
