#Trump announces attack targeting #Iranian_nuclear_sites, including the Fordow facility, and says: Very successful
US President Donald Trump announced that the US military has now launched an attack on Iranian nuclear sites, including the Fordow facility.
Trump said via Truth Social, "We have carried out our very successful attack on all three nuclear sites in Iran: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. All aircraft are now out of Iranian airspace.
A full load of bombs has been dropped on the main site, Fordow.
All aircraft are on their way home safely. Congratulations to our great American warriors. No other military in the world can do this. Now is the time for peace! Thank you for your attention."
Fox News reported that the United States used bunker-buster bombs and Tomahawk cruise missiles to strike key Iranian nuclear infrastructure facilities.
According to its data, five or six powerful bombs were dropped on the top-secret underground complex at Fordow from stealth B-2 bombers, although it was previously believed that two would have been sufficient. The television channel claims that "Iran's nuclear ambitions are officially over."
In addition to Fordow, two other nuclear sites were attacked in Isfahan and Natanz. According to Fox News, approximately 30 Tomahawk missiles were fired from submarines located approximately 400 miles away.
The channel also reported, citing nuclear safety experts, that the US strike on Iran's underground uranium enrichment facility at Fordow would not result in a radioactive release or a nuclear explosion.
It is believed that facility personnel were likely injured in the strike, but the attack would not result in a "nuclear explosion or widespread radioactive or chemical release."
This would have occurred if the Fordow facility contained nuclear reactors or warheads, but international observers and experts believe this is not the case, according to the channel.
The United States considered Iran's response to the ceasefire terms with Israel unacceptable for negotiations, according to the New York Times, citing Israeli military officials.
According to sources, Washington presented Tehran with several possible frameworks for a ceasefire agreement.
However, the US side assessed Iran's response as insufficiently constructive. Neither the proposed formulas nor the US objections were specified.
Earlier, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said that Iran was ready for negotiations, but that Israel must halt its aggression to achieve this.
First statement from the Israeli military to the public after the US bombing of Iranian nuclear sites
IDF spokesman Avichay Adraee announced early Sunday morning that, with the approval of the Minister of Defense and following a comprehensive assessment of the situation, it was decided to immediately implement a change in the Home Front Command's defense policy.
Adraee said in a statement: "With the approval of the Minister of Defense and following a situation assessment, it was decided that, starting today at 3:45 AM, there will be an immediate change in the Home Front Command's mobilization policy."
The IDF spokesperson concluded by stressing "continued monitoring and compliance with home front instructions."
These decisions come amid an expected escalation following the United States' attacks targeting Iranian nuclear facilities, and potential retaliation that could impact the situation within Israel. Israeli authorities say they have raised the level of preparedness in all areas in anticipation of any unexpected developments.
US President Donald Trump announced that the US military had launched what he described as a "very successful" attack targeting three Iranian nuclear sites: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.
Axios quoted an Israeli official as saying that the Trump administration had informed Tel Aviv in advance of plans for a US airstrike on Iranian nuclear sites.
The New York Times noted that these strikes were the first operation of their kind carried out by the US Air Force inside Iran since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, describing them as a "direct act of war."
For his part, Hassan Abedin, deputy director of the Iranian Broadcasting Corporation, stated early Sunday morning that the three nuclear facilities in Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan had been evacuated some time ago.
Abedini added, "Trump's conclusion that Iran no longer possesses nuclear technology is wrong," noting that if the US president's claim that the sites had been destroyed is true, "the damage is minor because the radioactive materials have been removed from there."
It is worth noting that Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei warned on Wednesday that "any military intervention by the Americans will undoubtedly cause irreparable damage," stressing that "the Iranian people will not surrender."
The Supreme National Security Council also confirmed that if a third party intervenes in an exchange of strikes between the Islamic Republic and Israel, they will "respond without hesitation."

Fox News reported that the United States used bunker-buster bombs and Tomahawk cruise missiles to strike key Iranian nuclear infrastructure facilities.

Iran's Atomic Energy Organization condemns US bombing of Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan nuclear facilities.
The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran strongly condemned the recent US attack on Iran's nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan, describing it as a brutal act that violates international laws.
The organization said in a statement on Sunday: "Iran's nuclear sites in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan were attacked by the enemies of Islamic Iran, in a brutal act that contravenes international laws, especially the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty."
It added: "Unfortunately, this act, which violates international laws, was carried out with indifference and even with the cooperation of the International Atomic Energy Agency."
The organization noted that "the American enemy... through the president of this country, claimed responsibility for the attack on the aforementioned sites, which are under continuous monitoring by the IAEA, based on the Safeguards Agreement and the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty."
It emphasized the need for the international community to condemn "this absurdity based on the law of the jungle and support Iran in achieving its legitimate rights."
The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran affirmed that "despite the malicious plots of its enemies, and with the efforts of thousands of its revolutionary and enthusiastic scientists and experts, it will not allow the development of this national industry, which is the fruit of the blood of nuclear martyrs, to be halted."
She concluded her statement by saying that she had "put on her agenda the necessary measures, including legal measures, to defend the rights of the noble Iranian nation."
Three major Iranian nuclear facilities were previously attacked by the United States. Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan are key sites in Iran's nuclear infrastructure, parts of which are under IAEA supervision.
