US Joins Israeli Air Campaign with Strikes on Three Iranian Nuclear Sites
- The United States struck three Iranian nuclear sites at Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan on Saturday evening as part of a coordinated campaign with Israel.
- The strike followed President Trump's decision to eliminate what he described as an existential threat from Iran’s nuclear ambitions despite objections and without congressional authorization.
- The attack used seven B-2 bombers carrying a dozen 30,000-pound bunker-busting bombs, including the GBU 57A/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator designed to penetrate Fordow’s deep mountain defenses.
- President Trump called the operation a “spectacular military success” and vowed never to allow a nuclear-armed Iran, while critics called the action unlawful and feared escalation into another costly war.
- The strike heightened tensions, prompted protests, and revealed strong partisan divisions, with supporters praising the defense of national security and opponents urging congressional oversight to prevent endless conflict.
