Social media accounts linked to Iranian embassies worldwide have continued to taunt Trump in what appears to be an effort to project defiance and counter US-Israeli narratives of a weakened leadership in Tehran, Al Jazeera reports.

The Iranian embassy account in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, has posted an image depicting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu inside Trump’s head, steering his decision-making, an apparent allusion to alleged Israeli influence on US policymaking.
