  "summary": "Iran's state media has mocked US President Donald Trump over a secret aircraft switch during a visit to Turkey. The switch occurred after Iran issued a missile threat. According to Al-Monitor, Iran's state media said the incident showed Trump was nervous about Iran's power.\n\nA meme circulating in Iran's state media showed Trump hiding in a catering truck. This was in reference to reports that Trump switched from Air Force One to a different aircraft. CBS News reported that Trump made the switch before departing from Turkey.\n\nThe incident occurred amid heightened tensions between the US and Iran. The Indian Express reported that Iran had previously dismissed Trump's claims of having full control over the Strait of Hormuz, with the Persian Gulf Strait Authority calling the claims \"entirely false\".",
