US Directly Strikes Iran...Trump: "Successful Attack on Three Nuclear Facilities"

B-2 bomber likely dropped bunker buster bombs
Bombs dropped on Iran's nuclear heart, Fordow
Trump: "Iran must agree to end the war"

On June 21 (local time), U.S. President Donald Trump directly intervened in the conflict between Israel and Iran by using American military power to strike Iran's nuclear facilities. Attention is now focused on how the conflict between the two countries, which began with Israel's preemptive airstrike on Iran, will unfold in the future.


On this day, President Trump announced on his social media platform, Truth Social, "We have completed a very successful attack on three Iranian nuclear facilities: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan." He added, "All aircraft have now exited Iranian airspace and are returning safely," and stated, "The entire bomb payload was dropped on the main target, Fordow."

President Trump also said, "Congratulations to the great American warriors," and emphasized, "Now is the time for peace." Fordow is known as the heart of Iran's nuclear facilities, where uranium enrichment for nuclear weapons development has reportedly taken place.


Foreign media reports indicate that a B-2 stealth bomber was involved in this U.S. attack. The B-2 bomber is a cutting-edge Air Force asset capable of carrying more than two "bunker buster" GBU-57 bombs, which are the only super-large bombs capable of destroying deeply buried underground nuclear facilities.


Given that the B-2 was mobilized and President Trump assessed the operation as a "success," it appears that the bunker buster GBU-57 was used in this attack.


In another post, President Trump stated, "Fordow is gone." He also said, "At 10 p.m., I will deliver a national address from the White House regarding the very successful military operation in Iran." The time he mentioned is Eastern Time in the United States, which corresponds to 11 a.m. on June 22 in Korea.


President Trump further emphasized, "This is a historic moment for the United States, Israel, and the world," and said, "Iran must now agree to end this war."
