Former U.S. president Donald Trump claimed in a 18 Aug. Truth Social post that he personally “ended six wars in six months,” helped free Hamas hostages and “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear facilities. He offered no details on which conflicts he was referring to or evidence supporting the assertions. Trump used the post to rebuke media outlets, singling out the Wall Street Journal for what he called unfair coverage of the Russia-Ukraine war, which he labeled “Sleepy Joe Biden’s mess.” He also suggested the achievements warranted consideration for a Nobel Peace Prize. The White House and the State Department have not commented on Trump’s remarks, and independent verification of the purported military and diplomatic actions was not immediately available. Previous U.S. assessments reported partial damage, not destruction, to two of three Iranian enrichment sites struck by U.S. forces in July.
