President Donald Trump announced the strikes early Saturday, calling them a “very successful attack” and stating that the targeted sites were “completely and fully obliterated”. The operation involved a combination of bunker-buster bombs and Tomahawk missiles launched from U.S. stealth bombers and submarines.

The strikes come after more than a week of intense aerial combat between Israel and Iran, which began on June 13. While Israel had already inflicted significant damage on Iranian military and nuclear infrastructure, U.S. involvement was deemed necessary to target the heavily fortified Fordow facility, buried deep within a mountain.

Iran has condemned the U.S. action as a “dangerous war” and warned of “everlasting consequences”. The International Atomic Energy Agency confirmed the attacks but reported no immediate signs of radiation leakage.

As the world watches anxiously, the international community has called for restraint, fearing further escalation in an already volatile region. Whether this marks a turning point toward resolution or deeper conflict remains uncertain.
