B-2 bombers used': US joins Israel in attacks on Iran, strikes 3 nuclear sites - 10 key points




President Donald Trump has confirmed that the United States carried out airstrikes on three of Iran’s most critical nuclear sites, Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan, marking the first direct American intervention in Israel’s ongoing conflict with Tehran.

The strike on Fordo, a heavily fortified underground facility, reportedly involved the use of six 30,000-pound “bunker buster” bombs, weapons only deployable by the US Air Force’s B-2 stealth bombers.

Trump announced the operation early Sunday, calling it a “very successful military operation” and a “historic moment for the United States, Israel, and the world.” He added: “All planes are safely on their way home

Congratulations to our great American Warriors... NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!” The move comes just days after the president suggested a diplomatic solution might still be possible, raising questions over the speed and scope of his military decision.

The escalation follows more than a week of coordinated Israeli strikes aimed at crippling Iran’s air defences and nuclear infrastructure. While Israel has claimed some success, officials in Jerusalem made clear they needed US firepower, specifically the GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator to destroy the deeply buried Fordo facility.
