US EditionUS strikes against Iran not aimed at regime change, Pentagon chief says
- On June 22-23, the U.S. launched Operation Midnight Hammer, striking Iran's nuclear sites at Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan with B-2 bombers using decoys and met no Iranian resistance.
- The strikes followed a timeline set by President Trump after assessing Iran acted in bad faith despite aggressive U.S. negotiations to find a peaceful settlement.
- The operation dropped 14 bunker-buster bombs, destroyed nuclear facilities causing severe damage but no fatalities, while Iran’s air defenses failed to detect the attack.
- Vice President Vance said the strikes substantially delayed Iran’s nuclear program for many years, and Defense Secretary Hegseth emphasized the mission was precision-based and not about regime change.
- The strikes heightened regional tensions with Iran threatening retaliation, Huthi allies vowing attacks on U.S. ships, and global calls for de-escalation amid risks of wider conflict.
