Trump escalates military strikes against Iran: B-1 bombers target ballistic missile systems
President Trump ordered B-2 stealth bombers to obliterate Iran’s nuclear facilities (Fordow, Natanz, Isfahan) with 30,000-pound bunker-busters, followed by B-1 Lancers targeting ballistic missile sites—marking a major escalation.
Within 24 hours of the strikes, Trump shifted from campaign promises of non-intervention to openly hinting at regime change, claiming Ayatollah Khamenei and top officials were killed.
Tehran downplayed the destruction, insisting nuclear enrichment continues despite U.S. claims of “obliterating” their program. CENTCOM footage showed B-1 strikes but Iran disputes the impact.
The operation saw tragic mishaps, including three U.S. F-15s shot down by Kuwaiti air defenses and four American service members killed, exposing risks of broader conflict.
