President Donald Trump claimed at a Kentucky rally that U.S. and Israeli military operations have "virtually destroyed Iran," and "we won," but CNN correspondent Nic Robertson's reporting from Kuwait contradicts the narrative.

Within hours of Trump's statements, Iran struck two oil tankers in the Persian Gulf and attacked locations across the Middle East. Robertson documented residential buildings blown apart, injured civilians, and multiple overnight attacks on Kuwait, including strikes on Kuwait International Airport.

Robertson described Iran effectively turning the Persian Gulf into a war zone while attempting to choke off the Strait of Hormuz, creating an economic stranglehold on the region. Defensive fighter jets launched overnight as sirens sounded throughout Kuwait.

CNN anchor Kate Bolduan agreed the evidence indicated the conflict was "ramping up," rather than winding down, contradicting Trump's statements in Kentucky.
