Operation Midnight Hammer: The Surprise Strike on Iran's Nuclear Facilities

- Six B-2 Spirit bombers flew 18 hours undetected, dropping 14 Massive Ordnance Penetrators, while submarines launched about 30 Tomahawk missiles at the targets.
- General Dan Caine reported the attack caused severe, extensive damage with no Iranian counterattacks detected, and President Trump claimed the nuclear program was devastated.
- Gulf states heightened alert amid uncertain Iranian retaliation risks, with US officials warning of further strikes if Iran resumes nuclear activity or attacks US interests.
