President Donald Trump just yesterday announced that United States military launched a major attack on Iran.
The strike targeted three Iranian nuclear facilities namely Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan and claimed they caused damages to Iran.

In a recent post, Trump labeled the strike as “monumental damage” and “completely obliterated” Iran’s nuclear enrichment capabilities.
He described the damage as occurring “far below ground level,” particularly at the deeply buried Fordo site, and referenced satellite imagery to support his claims, though he did not specify which images.
The U.S. operation, dubbed “Operation Midnight Hammer,” involved seven B-2 stealth bombers dropping 14 GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) “bunker-buster” bombs on Fordo and Natanz.
It also took place alongside over 30 Tomahawk cruise missiles launched from a U.S. submarine targeting Isfahan.

Satellite imagery from Maxar Technologies and Planet Labs, analyzed by sources shows significant surface damage at Fordo.
The damage includes craters and altered ridge lines, but underground damage to enrichment halls is uncertain.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) confirmed a “direct kinetic impact” at Fordo but could not fully assess internal damage, noting no off-site radiation increases.
