US Strikes Iran's Nuclear Sites: Fordo, Natanz & Isfahan Hit in Major Escalation

In a stunning military escalation, the United States has carried out coordinated airstrikes targeting three critical Iranian nuclear facilities—Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan. The attack, executed with the advanced GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs, marks one of the most forceful military actions taken by Washington in the Middle East in recent years.

According to defense analysts, the Fordo site, which lies deep within a mountain south of Tehran, was a primary target due to its strategic importance to Iran’s uranium enrichment operations. While the full extent of damage remains unclear, the strike was aimed at disrupting Iran’s ability to develop nuclear capabilities.

President Donald Trump, speaking at a press conference alongside top security officials, hailed the operation as a “spectacular military success,” asserting that the “nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated.”

Iranian authorities have acknowledged the attacks but downplayed their impact, claiming that sensitive materials were moved before the bombing. However, Tehran’s foreign minister issued a stern warning, vowing that the strikes would have "everlasting consequences."

Global reactions have been mixed. While Saudi Arabia and the UK expressed cautious support, the UN Secretary General and the EU urged all parties to de-escalate and return to negotiations. Meanwhile, Iran launched retaliatory missile strikes on Israel, injuring several civilians and raising fears of a broader regional conflict.

Experts believe Iran faces three main strategic choices: refrain from retaliation and pursue diplomacy, strike back aggressively, or delay its response for a more calculated future attack. Each path carries serious geopolitical implications.

With tensions spiraling and the risk of all-out war looming, the world watches closely as the Middle East stands on the brink of a new era of instability.

Russia Faces Major Setback as Iran Regime Risks Collapse Amid Conflict

In a week where Middle East tensions dominate global headlines, Russia is quietly watching a crisis that could shake its strategic foundations — the potential collapse of the Iranian regime. At a high-level conference in Moscow themed “Russian-Iranian Cooperation in a Changing World,” top officials found themselves confronting a harsh new reality: Iran — one of Russia’s closest allies — is facing unprecedented pressure as the war with Israel escalates. With U.S. support behind Israel and former President Donald Trump demanding Tehran’s “unconditional surrender,” Iran’s grip on power looks increasingly shaky. For Moscow, this could be a devastating geopolitical blow. While Russia has forged deep military and economic ties with Iran — including a recent strategic partnership treaty — it is clear the Kremlin has no intention of stepping into the battlefield on Iran’s behalf. Analysts say Russia is unwilling to risk direct conflict with the U.S. or jeopardize its interests in Ukraine. “If ...

Trump’s Shifting Iran Strategy Sparks Division and Global Uncertainty

U.S. President Donald Trump’s unpredictable posture toward the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran has raised eyebrows across Washington and unsettled even his most loyal base. Over the past month, Trump has swung between diplomacy and confrontation, leaving both allies and adversaries unsure of what to expect next. After a surprise early departure from the G7 summit in Canada, Trump claimed Iran was “very close” to acquiring nuclear weapons—a position at odds with recent assessments from U.S. intelligence and international nuclear monitors. The inconsistency has led to concerns that the U.S. may edge closer to a military role in the Middle East, despite Trump's repeated promises to avoid foreign entanglements. Just weeks ago, Trump praised ongoing negotiations with Iran, hinting that a new deal on nuclear development was “almost done.” But those diplomatic signals shifted quickly as regional tensions erupted. Following Israeli strikes on Iranian military f...

Israel reportedly targeted Iran’s nuclear facility in Isfahan, while Iran responded with drone and missile attacks.

On the ninth day of intensifying conflict, Iran and Israel continue to exchange missile and drone strikes while diplomatic avenues remain frozen.
