Fake Epstein-Trump AI Video Goes Viral on X, Linked to Pro-Iran Propaganda Network
•A fake AI-generated video appearing to show Donald Trump with blindfolded girls and Jeffrey Epstein went viral on X, garnering millions of views.
•Researchers from the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD) linked the video to a pro-Iran propaganda network of X accounts, including HDX News and GPX News.
•The network uses sensational content like the Epstein video to attract viewers, then exposes them to anti-U.S. and anti-Israel political propaganda.
•The disinformation campaign intensified after Feb. 28 amid the Middle East conflict, also fueling antisemitic conspiracy theories like "Operation Epstein Fury."
•X suspended some linked accounts and introduced a new policy against misleading AI-generated war footage, warning of penalties for non-disclosure.
