LOS Angeles police have been forced to delete a social media post about the Iran conflict that they called “offensive and inappropriate.”

Authorities have issued an extensive apology for commenting on the situation and mistakenly implying fatalities after the US conducted airstrikes on three nuclear sites in Iran.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department shared condolences for the “tragic” bombing in a since-deleted post on X on Sunday.

An original version of the post read, “Our hearts go out to the victims and families impacted by the recent bombings in Iran.

“Although this tragic incident took place abroad, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is vigilantly observing the circumstances in collaboration with our local, state, and federal partners.”

No deaths have been confirmed in the US airstrikes on Iran.

A few moments after the post was shared, it was edited to remove mentions of Iranian victims and families.

The statement was also edited to say police were “closely monitoring the situation overseas.”

Then, the post was deleted entirely after backlash from social media users, some of whom called the message “embarrassing” and “pathetic.”

LASD then shared an apology for the post.

“We are releasing this statement to sincerely apologize for an insensitive and unsuitable social media post that was recently shared on our Department platforms concerning the ongoing conflict in Iran,” the police stated.

“This post was unacceptable, made in error, and does not reflect the views of Sheriff Robert G. Luna or the Department.

‘”As a law enforcement agency, we do not comment on foreign policy or military matters.

“Our mission remains solely focused on protecting public safety and serving our diverse communities.”

The department said it launched an internal review to figure out how the post was created and published.

Police also said they’re working to strengthen their social media policies and “ensure that any future communications align with our Department’s standards of professionalism, respect, and accountability,” the apology added.

The LASD hasn’t returned The U.S. Sun’s request for comment.

It comes after Los Angeles law enforcement officials are already facing backlash for how they handled anti-ICE protests in the city, which saw violence and looting break out earlier this month.

The demonstrations were peaceful at first, but escalated after President Donald Trump sent in the National Guard as some rioters lit self-driving vehicles on fire.

Cops and local politicians were slammed for failing to keep the peace during the rallies.

CONFLICT IN IRAN

The LASD’s original post about Iran was shared just hours after Trump entered the conflict between Israel and Iran on Saturday night.

He sent American warplanes to target Iranian nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.

It’s unclear if there have been any casualties in the attack, but Trump said the sites were “obliterated.”

He wrote on Truth Social after the strikes, “We have completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan.

“All planes are now outside of Iran air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home.

“Congratulations to our great American Warriors. There is not another military in the World that could have done this. NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!”

Iran has warned that there will be consequences for the strikes.
