The United States has launched airstrikes on three major nuclear sites in Iran. US President Donald Trump confirmed the operation through a statement posted on his Truth Social platform.
According to Trump, the military targeted Iran’s nuclear facilities at Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan. He described the mission as a “very successful attack,” noting that American aircraft dropped a “full payload of BOMBS” on the Fordow site, which he identified as the primary target.
“All planes are now outside of Iran air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home,” Trump wrote.
He praised the US military for its precision and strength, adding, “Congratulations to our great American Warriors. There is not another military in the World that could have done this.” He concluded his message with a call for diplomacy: “NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE! Thank you for your attention to this matter.”
These strikes come amid heightened tensions in the region, though Trump’s statement did not mention any Iranian response or whether there were casualties. The choice of targets suggests the US aimed to cripple key elements of Iran’s nuclear infrastructure.
As of now, no additional details have been released by the Pentagon or the Iranian government.
