In the Iran war, governments control what we see

In the US-Israel war on Iran, governments have clamped down on what information gets out. Iran has shut down the internet and the Gulf monarchies have arrested individuals who posted videos of the damage following strikes. In Israel, the military has control over what's reported and in Lebanon, journalists are being targeted and killed. And while all this is taking place, authorities are pushing their own version of events through state media and propaganda to shape how the war is understood. The World's Shirin Jaafari reports.
