In a dramatic escalation that has stunned global observers, the United States launched a coordinated airstrike on three major nuclear facilities inside Iran — Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan — using B-2 stealth bombers and Tomahawk cruise missiles. This historic move marks a turning point in the ongoing Middle East crisis and places the U.S. squarely at the heart of an intensifying military conflict.
According to senior defense officials, the Fordow site was hit with a full payload of 30,000-pound bunker-buster bombs, completely disabling its underground operations. Simultaneously, Tomahawk missiles struck additional targets, complementing an Israeli-led strike that had earlier damaged 75% of Natanz and Isfahan’s infrastructures. The Pentagon confirmed that the operation was meticulously coordinated, with all aircraft exiting Iranian airspace safely.
President Donald Trump, in a televised address from the White House, declared the mission a success and emphasized that now is the time for peace. "There is no military on Earth that could have achieved this," he said, stressing the unique capability of the U.S. Armed Forces to deliver strategic impact with precision.
Iranian officials swiftly condemned the strike as a violation of international law and sovereignty. Strategic advisor to Iran’s parliament confirmed that the targeted sites had been evacuated weeks earlier, while local reports in Isfahan claimed minimal civilian disruption. However, Iranian military spokespeople warned that American assets and personnel in the region are now considered legitimate targets.
Meanwhile, Israel, a close ally in the operation, reiterated that the strike would reshape the regional balance and undermine Iran’s nuclear ambitions for years. Military analysts are now watching closely to see whether this strike forces Iran into diplomatic engagement or provokes a broader retaliatory response.
Multiple sources, including The New York Times and Fox News, reported that the operation had been rehearsed in joint U.S.-Israel military drills over a year ago. Early thermal imaging by NASA even detected significant heat signatures near Fordow minutes before the public announcement — indicating high-impact bomb detonations.
The world now braces for the fallout, as Iran weighs its next move amid intensified diplomatic warnings and heightened military readiness across the region.
