Former U.S. President Donald Trump has made a bold claim that key nuclear facilities in Iran were completely "obliterated" during overnight U.S. military strikes carried out on Saturday.
The development has escalated tensions in the Middle East, with Iranian armed forces warning of a “decisive response.”
According to Sky News, Trump declared that the United States had neutralized critical targets within Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, including highly secure sites such as Fordow — a facility known for its deep underground uranium enrichment operations.
In response, Tehran issued a strongly worded statement, threatening serious retaliation if the aggression continues. The Iranian military emphasized that any future attack on its sovereign assets would be met with overwhelming force, raising concerns over a broader regional conflict.
The strikes, reportedly part of the previously revealed "Operation Midnight Hammer," involved B-2 stealth bombers capable of launching bunker-busting munitions designed to penetrate hardened underground targets.
International analysts are now weighing the geopolitical fallout of the operation, especially as Israel continues its parallel conflict with Iranian-backed forces in the region. Meanwhile, world powers including Russia and China have urged restraint.
While the full extent of damage to Iran’s nuclear sites remains unverified, Trump’s declaration marks a significant escalation in U.S.–Iran tensions and may reshape diplomacy in the weeks ahead.
