US EditionKeir Starmer calls for Iran to return to negotiating table
- On June 23, 2025, US President Donald Trump authorized precise military attacks against Iran's nuclear sites, including locations at Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan, delivering his address from the White House.
- The strikes followed a buildup of US military equipment and aimed to alleviate the grave threat posed by Iran's nuclear programme, which key leaders have called a danger to international security.
- The attacks employed B-2 stealth bombers and about 30 Tomahawk cruise missiles launched by US submarines, targeting underground facilities described by Trump as "completely and fully obliterated."
- Iran responded with a missile barrage against Israel and warned that the strikes "will have everlasting consequences," with Tehran reserving all options for retaliation, while UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer urged a diplomatic solution to de-escalate tensions.
- The US and UK continue coordinating with European allies to pursue renewed dialogue with Iran, amid warnings from leaders of a real risk of further escalation in the Middle East conflict.
