American fighter jets bombed three nuclear sites across Iran during a nighttime attack. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth told reporters that US forces hit the Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan facilities hard. The military operation used 75 smart bombs and 14 massive bunker-buster weapons to destroy underground targets. American pilots flew their planes from bases back home and faced no enemy fire during the mission. Hegseth said the strikes wiped out much of Iran's nuclear program.
President Trump warned Iran earlier that they must make peace or face even bigger attacks later. The Defence Secretary explained that this mission was not meant to remove Iran's government from power. Trump has said for over ten years that Iran cannot be allowed to build nuclear weapons. Some American bombers flew over the Pacific Ocean to trick Iranian forces about where the real attack would come from. All US aircraft returned safely to their home bases after completing the bombing runs.
Iran's leaders fired back with angry words after the strikes ended. They accused Trump of betrayal and promised there would be lasting consequences for America. Satellite photos show fresh bomb craters at the nuclear sites where US forces struck. General Dan Caine gave reporters details about how many weapons the military used during the operation. The Pentagon says no Iranian soldiers or civilians were targeted during the precise nighttime raids.
