Donald Trump authorized three U.S. airstrikes against Iran’s nuclear facilities at Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan, declaring the operation a “spectacular military success.” White House photos showed Trump wearing his MAGA hat in the Situation Room moments before the attack. The strikes came amid escalating tensions between Iran and Israel, with Trump warning Iran to seek peace or face “far greater” consequences.
Iran condemned the bombings as “outrageous and criminal,” vowing retaliation. Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi accused the U.S. of violating international law, while Trump celebrated the mission on Truth Social, praising U.S. forces. The conflict has intensified since Israel’s June 13 strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, with world leaders increasingly concerned about Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
