In a post on Truth Social, Trump claimed that the attacks reflect a historical growth in the running Israel-Iran struggle to "completely and completely", which attacks Iran. During the Vice President Jedi Vance, Defense Secretary and Foreign Minister Marco Rubio during the Vice House, Trump said, "There are many goals left now."

| U.S. strikes Iran’s nuclear sites, escalating Middle East tensions |
In the attacks, B-2 St. bombers dropped a "bunker buster" bomb on a massive 30,000 pounds on the heavy fortified Fordo site, which are known as Massive Ordnance Penetrators, which is buried in depth under a mountain. The US Navy's submarines targeted Natanz and Isfahan, 30 Tomahawk missiles also tangled. This was the first time that America attacked directly to Iran, this step was raised after the campaign of Israel to weaken Iran's air safety and missile systems.
Why This Matters: A Major Escalation in the Middle East
The decision of trump to bomb Iran’s nuclear sites is a significant change, which is pushing the US to June 13, 2025 in Israel-Iran conflict. Israel is targeting Iran's nuclear program, claiming that he is close to developing nuclear weapons, although Iran says that his program is for peaceful purposes. America attacked Natanz and Isfahan after Israeli attacks, which only proved to be partially effective, so that the US-Israel's joint strategy was promoted, so that Fordo is targeted by using the unique bunker-busting capabilities of America. Could, a site which could not completely distinguish Israeli alone.
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised the trump's "adventure decision" and told it a historic moment, which can change history. " However, this step has divided the American MPs. Some Republicans like Senator Ted Cruz supported the attacks, while others like representative Marjorie Taylor Greene expressed concern about engaging in another Middle East war. Democrats, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, did not criticize the trump to not take the approval of the Congress.
Iran’s Response: Defiance and Retaliation
Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi condemned American attacks and called the violation of "disgusting" and international law and warned "to suffer the consequences forever". Iran's nuclear power organization confirmed the attacks, but stressed that his nuclear program will continue, and claimed that no significant damage or radiation leak was not. Iranian government media said that Fordo was already emptied, and the loss was very low, although these claims are still unconscious.
A few hours after American attacks, Iran attacked the Missile on Central and Northern Israel, in which at least 20 people were injured. Haifa and Tel Aviv were attacked, a missile in Ness Ziona damaged a dozen houses. Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps vowed the further attacks, and the radical voices such as Hossein Shariatmadari called the missile attack and the Hormuz on the US Navy shutdown.. However, the supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has not yet issued an official response, which is unsure of Iran's next step.
Risks of a Wider Conflict
American interference is a high-wager gambling. If successful, it can push the Iran's nuclear program back to years, which can be a regional anti-regional. But the risks are very high. Iran has a history of asymmetric retribution, which includes proxy like Hezbollah and the Houthis, who threatened American ships in the Red Sea. In Lebanon, bombardment on American Marine Barak in 1983, which is given to Iran supported terrorists, reflects the ability of indirect attacks of Tehran.
The International Atomic Energy Agency has reported so far no increase in off-site radiation, suggesting limited environmental impact. However, if Iran targets potentially American bases in this area, where 40,000 soldiers are deployed, the struggle can change in a broad war. Trump team has calculated it as a attack, but experts have warned that Iran's reaction can decide that it will be limited or there will be some big explosion.
Peace or More Tragedy
Trump urged the attacks as an attempt to peace, urged Iran to face or face further attacks. Before taking the support of military action, he cited the last diplomatic efforts, including backchannel meeting in Turkey's mediation in Istanbul as proof of his restraint. Still, it can be difficult to retreat the leadership of Iran's leadership from the domestic pressure of attacks and strong.
The world is now tracking the next step of Tehran. Will Iran be withdrawn by this shock and will return to diplomacy, which will be the risk of comprehensive regional war? As the Trump said, the election between Iran is facing the election between "peace or tragedy". At present, the Middle East is in tension, and there is no clear way to reduce stress.
