The footage shows alleged aerial bombings, with the explosion of a storage tank and an oil tanker. Trump accompanied the post with the message: "Jarg Island being shattered!!! President DJT".
The video's release came hours after the first U.S. attack on Iranian targets in a month. The offensive targeted Larak Island, located in the Strait of Hormuz, where, according to the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), rockets loaded with naval mines that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard intended to deploy were destroyed.
The escalation also led to Iranian attacks on U.S. positions in Jordan and the United Arab Emirates, although Jordanian authorities claimed to have intercepted the eight missiles launched.
Jark remains a strategic target for concentrating a large part of Iran's oil exports. In July, a U.S. airstrike on its facilities left at least eight Iranian military personnel dead.
Additionally, Iran claimed on Monday that a supertanker caught fire after hitting two naval mines near the Strait of Hormuz.
