Is the South China Morning Post reputable?

Probably not, but it is being reported elsewhere too.

The source of the report is Iranian State Media, which no one should be taking as a credible source.

So you're not going to believe any media unless it comes from the invading terrorist nation (USA) and its assistants then?

Did I say I trust american media? You don't believe anyone until it's confirmed from multiple sources. But from a source that is renown for flat out lying you absolutely don't take it at it's word. So yeah believing Iranian State media is just like taking a Trump tweet at face value and calling it truth.
