Trump announces “major combat operations” against Iran as explosions rock Tehran and region
President Donald Trump announced that the United States has launched “major combat operations” against Iran, dubbed “Operation Epic Fury,” aimed at eliminating imminent threats and dismantling Iran’s nuclear program.
In a video address, Trump accused Tehran of refusing to abandon its nuclear ambitions and vowed to destroy Iran’s missile systems, military infrastructure and navy.
He cited Iran’s history of hostility toward the U.S., including the 1979 hostage crisis and regional proxy activity, saying Washington would no longer tolerate what he described as decades of aggression.
Trump issued an ultimatum to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), urging members to surrender for “complete immunity” or “face certain death,” despite U.S. operations appearing to be conducted primarily from the air.
The strikes were announced shortly after mediated talks in Oman reportedly showed progress, and as Israel confirmed its own attacks on Iranian targets, heightening fears of a broader Middle East conflict.
