The U.S. Has Bombed Iran’s Nuclear Sites

U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Saturday that the United States had launched a “very successful” attack on three of Iran’s nuclear facilities. This marks the first direct U.S. military involvement in the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran that began on June 13.

“We have completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan. All planes are now outside of Iran air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social.

In a potential sign that Trump may seek to limit U.S. involvement in the escalating conflict to these strikes and is still hopeful for a diplomatic resolution, he added, “NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!”

Trump’s announcement ended days of speculation as to whether the United States would strike Iran. The U.S. attack came despite warnings from Tehran that such a move would lead to “all-out war.”
