This photo, released by Sepah News, the media arm of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, and distributed by Agence France-Presse, hit the front pages of a slew of newspapers across the country, including the Los Angeles Times and the Chicago Tribune, as part of a report about the country's controversial missile testing. Only problem? It was likely a fake. Or at least a, ahem, "photo illustration." Keen eyes spotted an extra missile — that second one from the right — that appears to have been Photoshopped into the pic. Not that this would be the first time Iran has been fingered for employing digital tricks in its official pix. So why'd they Photoshop this particular photo?

Because the fourth missile that was supposed to be in the sky with the others … likely was a dud and failed to launch. (It's there, hidden, beneath the cloud of smoke.)
