Claim: Did the US government use HAARP to artificially trigger the 7.5 magnitude Venezuela earthquake on June 24, 2026?

The claim that the US government used HAARP to trigger the 7.5 magnitude Venezuela earthquake is false. Mainstream sources, including scientific reports and news outlets, attribute the earthquake to natural geological processes without any evidence of artificial interference. Some alternative sources speculate about HAARP's involvement, often linking it to geopolitical narratives, but these claims lack credible support and are not substantiated by scientific evidence. Thus, the consensus strongly rejects the idea of HAARP's involvement in this event. All three graders point in the same direction, with minor differences. OpenAI comes in highest (10%), while Gemini is lowest (0%). While some alternative sources suggest that the earthquake could be linked to HAARP due to geopolitical tensions, these claims do not alter the overall verdict. The evidence from reputable sources consistently points to natural tectonic activity as the cause of the earthquake. The lack of credible evidence supporting the HAARP theory indicates that such claims are speculative and not grounded in scientific fact. Therefore, the assertion remains unsupported by the majority of credible sources, reinforcing the conclusion that the US government did not trigger the earthquake artificially.
