On June 22, the U.S. executed airstrikes on Iran’s three primary nuclear sites Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan using B‑2 stealth bombers, bunker‑buster bombs, and Tomahawks. President Trump called it a “spectacular military success,” claiming the sites were “completely and totally obliterated,” while warning Iran to seek peace or face more strikes. Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization and the UN nuclear watchdog detected no radioactive contamination. Iran retaliated with missile strikes on Israel, injuring civilians, and threatened further escalation. Israeli PM Netanyahu praised the U.S. action, but the UN condemned it as dangerous. U.S. lawmakers are divided on its legality, sparking fears of a wider Middle East war.
