Iranian troops shown abducting Trump, Netanyahu lookalikes in viral video
A video shared on social media by the supporters of the Islamic Republic purportedly depicts Iranian military forces bundling figures resembling Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu onto the back of a pickup truck labeled Trash Bin of History.
A figure in the video wearing a yellow wig likely portraying Trump was shown being thrown to the ground before the mock abduction.
The display features a parade of motorcyclists and individuals in military attire carrying weapons and the vehicle's license plate and surroundings suggest it was filmed in Mazandaran province, north of Tehran.
“The clip was part of a spontaneous public theater performance held last week as a prelude to a memorial ceremony for martyrs," IRGC affiliated Fars News reported on Friday, "without any affiliation to official institutions or organizations."
A rare note of official caution from the hardline outlet, the remarks appeared aimed at distancing Tehran from any threat to the US President.
