US EditionU.S. Deploys B-2 Stealth Bombers to the Pacific as Trump Considers Iran Strike: Report
- The United States military launched precision strikes early Sunday targeting Iran's nuclear sites at Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan during Operation Midnight Hammer.
- The operation followed over a week of Israeli strikes aimed at weakening Iran's nuclear and missile capabilities, with close U.S.-Israel coordination and President Trump informing Netanyahu hours before.
- The attacks involved 14 GBU-57 bunker buster bombs dropped by seven B-2 stealth bombers from Missouri, about 30 Tomahawk missiles launched from submarines, and support from F-22 and F-35 fighters.
- General Dan Caine confirmed all three sites sustained severe damage, Trump called the strikes a “spectacular military success” and Iran reported no contamination signs while retaliating with missile launches on a U.S. base in Qatar.
- The strikes are expected to degrade Iran’s nuclear program but have heightened tensions, with Trump warning any Iranian retaliation will face greater U.S. force, while diplomatic outcomes remain uncertain.
