On Saturday evening, after Blaze News’ Rebeka Zeljko reported that a press lid was called for the day at the White House, President Donald Trump announced via Truth Social that the United States had carried out a “successful attack on three nuclear sites in Iran.” The president’s post was shared by Secretary of State Marco Rubio via a post on X.
Earlier in the day, there were multiple reports that B-2 bombers had left their base in Missouri. The destination was not known. It was speculated to be Diego Garcia, where the U.S. Air Force keeps bombers, or Iran. With the president’s post, it appears that the destination was Iran.
Trump identified the nuclear sites hit as “Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan.” He further declared that “all planes are now outside of Iran air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow.”
