VARIOUS OF MILITARY EQUIPMENT / POSTER OF IRANIAN COMMANDERS / BANNER DEPICTING US PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP AND BEARING DEATH TREATSTEHRAN, IRAN - AUG. 2, 2026: A banner depicting U.S. President Donald Trump and displaying a written death threat was placed in front of Iran's Zolfaghar and Zolghadr ballistic missiles at Tehran's Azadi Square on Sunday, Aug. 2. Over 13 days ending July 24, the US and Iran exchanged military attacks, with Washington carrying out strikes inside Iran and Tehran responding by targeting what it described as US military facilities and equipment in several Arab countries, including Jordan, Bahrain and Kuwait. The escalation followed a June 18 memorandum of understanding between Washington and Tehran and negotiations toward a final agreement, which later stalled over disagreements related to security and freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most strategic energy and trade routes. On Feb. 28, the US and Israel launched attacks on Iran that, according to Tehran, killed more than 3,000 people. Iran responded with attacks it said caused American and Israeli casualties.
