About this analysis

Haaretz runs a short Reuters item reporting a Revolutionary Guards spokesperson's claim that the United States cannot blockade Iran's economy or shut its trade routes. The claim is clearly attributed to its source, and the article does not state either side's position as its own fact. Nothing in it misleads the reader.

What it gets right

  • “communicates closely with neighbours, a Revolutionary Guards spokesperson was”

    The article attributes Iran's claim about its preparations to a named source, a Revolutionary Guards spokesperson, rather than stating it in its own voice or casting doubt on it.
