Fact check: Cloud seeding didn't make it rain in Iran
DW Fact Check debunks viral social media claims that Iran destroying the UAE's Research Program for Rain Enhancement Science caused extreme rain and snow in Iran. The claims are false because there is no evidence the center was attacked, the observed weather aligns with forecasts and historical data, and cloud seeding technology only works on small scales and cannot alter regional weather patterns.
