Claim 1: “The U.S. military launched fresh strikes against Iran on Sunday evening”
DISPUTED
The evidence provides conflicting dates for the strikes. One source mentions strikes on 'Saturday evening', while another mentions 'a second night' on July 12, 2026. The claim specifies 'Sunday evening', which is not explicitly confirmed and is contradicted by the 'Saturday' report.
