Link to tweet
Over the weekend, Iranian state TV released a video showing a new missile launch in the country. President Trump then fired off an angry tweet, implying that the so-called Iran Deal wasnt working. The only problem? The US intelligence community now says that theres no evidence Iran conducted a new missile test. And that video? Its from January.
............................
As far as we can see, it did not happen, an unnamed source told CNN about the missile launch. US intelligence radars and sensors are designed to pick up any such test and the source said they picked up no indication that a test had been conducted.
