In a major military action, the United States has confirmed airstrikes on three key nuclear facilities in Iran. The mission, supported by Israel and personally endorsed by former U.S. President Donald Trump, is already being described as one of the most powerful and precise air attacks in recent decades.
The strikes targeted Iran's nuclear enrichment sites in Natanz, Fordow, and Esfahan — locations long believed to be developing nuclear weapons capability.
What Happened?
- The U.S. used B2 stealth bombers armed with GBU-57 bunker-busting bombs
- Each bomb weighs 13,600 kg, designed to penetrate and destroy underground facilities
- The mission was fully successful, according to official sources
- Iran’s nuclear infrastructure has been completely destroyed
This marks the first time such a deep underground strike has been carried out with this level of precision and speed.
The Role of Israel
Israel's Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, applauded the operation. He called it a historic moment, thanking President Trump and the American military for “doing what no other country could do.”
Netanyahu emphasized that this strike wasn’t just for Israel — but for the security of the entire Middle East and the world.
Trump's Statement
In a detailed televised speech, former President Trump said:
“Tonight, the U.S. military carried out precision strikes on Iran’s key nuclear sites. Our mission was to eliminate Iran’s nuclear enrichment capability — and we succeeded.”
He continued:
- “Iran’s nuclear threat is no longer.”
- “They must now choose peace, or face even greater consequences.”
- “This is a turning point in history.”
Trump also thanked the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the U.S. Air Force, and the Israeli military for their cooperation.
Why Now?
According to Trump, Iran was days away from building operational nuclear weapons. Intelligence reports suggested these weapons could threaten not just Israel but the wider region.
“If we had waited any longer, Israel would have been in danger of total destruction,” he said.
For years, Iran has been accused of secretly developing nuclear weapons while publicly denying it. The U.S. has now taken direct military action to stop it.
What’s Next?
Trump warned Iran:
“If they do not seek peace now, future attacks will be faster, larger, and more deadly.”
He made it clear that this was only the first phase of potential action. Other suspected sites have been identified and could be targeted next.
A Pentagon press conference was scheduled the following morning to give more technical and strategic details.
The Global Impact
This strike will have global consequences:
- Other nations may now reconsider their stance on Iran
- The UN Security Council is expected to hold an emergency session
- Tensions between U.S.–Iran and Iran–Israel may escalate further
Despite the risks, U.S. and Israeli officials claim the mission was necessary to protect global peace.
Final Words
President Trump ended his speech by saying:
“We love our military. We love God. And we love peace.
But peace only comes through strength.
May God bless the Middle East, Israel, and America.”
