Through one video material published on Facebook by the page "NewsKs", it is alleged that the President of the United States of America (USA), Donald Trump, has threatened Serbia with bombing or that he has declared war on it because of Kosovo.
What does the material contain?
"Mr. Vucic, don't touch Kosovo. I'm warning you. You must leave Kosovo alone. If you attack Kosovo, we will bomb Belgrade like we did in 1999," Trump is heard saying in English.
The video contains the logos of the media outlets "Daily Mail" and "Reuters".
The truth?
After fact-checking conducted by hibrid.info, it was confirmed that Trump did not make such a statement and that the claims were not published by the "Daily Mail" or "Reuters". In fact, the audio was generated with artificial intelligence.
The video with the same claim was published earlier on TikTok, which was handled by hibrid.info (see here).

There he spoke about the issue of reimbursement for securing the passage of ships in the Strait of Hormuz. The video was published two days ago by the “Daily Mail” on Facebook with the title “Trump aims for reimbursement for protecting the Strait of Hormuz” (see here). The same video was also published by "economictimes". There he does not talk about Kosovo or Serbia.
A deeper search through the photo and details (Trump's red tie, the blue tie of the person behind him) led to the full video of a statement by Trump from the White House. It turns out that the content posted on TikTok is an excerpt from Trump's full speech from July 13, 2026, when he signed an executive order on National Monuments. The full transcript of Trump's statement shows that ai did not talk about Kosovo and Serbia (see here).
