The social media platform X (formerly Twitter) suspended Iranian military-affiliated Tasnim News Agency on Thursday, July 30.
Its English account and other related handles were all displayed as banned for violating X’s “rules.”
Unconfirmed reports suggest the suspension followed a video highlighting security gaps around Melania Trump and detailing potential targeting strategies. X has yet to issue an official explanation, while the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-linked state media remains offline.
Sharing a video of a US attack destroying homes on an Iranian island, Iran’s Embassy in Zimbabwe, on X, questioned if it was a meaningful reason for suspending the account.
