The claim
Sharing a video in a post on X with 2.9 million views at the time of writing, one user claims that it shows the capital of Iran: Teheran. He states that the "US began dropping 2,000-pound bombs" on March 4 and that the administration "still says this is not a war."
Original review summary
The video does show bombing in Tehran, but it was originally shared on March 1, so it cannot show events on March 4. The review says the footage does not establish whether 2,000-pound bombs were dropped on Tehran; it also notes that the administration had not formally declared war, although Trump called the actions “major combat operations.”[S1]
