US President Donald Trump said the US fighter exploded three Iran’s three nuclear sites and recorded significant expansion in the ongoing war between Iran and Israel.
The president said, “There is a lot of goals, the most difficult tonight and perhaps the most fatal.
“But if peace doesn’t come quickly, you will go to other targets with precision, speed and technology.”
One of the goals was FORDO, a uranium reinforced factory hidden between the secluded mountains, which are essential to Iran’s nuclear ambitions. We haven’t yet known the entire size of damage in the facility.
Israeli officials say they are “complete” with the United States to plan this strike.
US officials said that the BBC’s US partner, CBS NEWS, said that on Saturday, the air raid was intended by contacting Iran through diplomatic channels, and “the effort to change” was “not planned.”
Iran was able to respond with the goal of US military assets in this area. Officials warned that some US attacks were in danger of local wars and retaliated.
The following is the home of what we know so far.
How did this start?
Israel began a surprise attack on dozens of Iranian nuclear and military goals on June 13. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that dismantling the nuclear program was to dismantle the nuclear program.
Iran claims that nuclear ambitions are peaceful. In retaliation, Tehran fired hundreds of rockets and drones in Israel. The two countries continued to exchange strike in the air war that lasted more than a week.
Trump said he has been opposed to Iran for a long time. Israel does not check or deny this, but is widely known.
In March, Tulsi Gabbard, the head of the US National Intelligence Service, said Iran had increased uranium stockpiles to unprecedented levels, but did not build nuclear weapons.
In the campaign trail, Trump criticized the US administration for participating in the “foolish endless war” in the Middle East and vowed to escape the United States from foreign conflicts.
The United States and Iran were in a nuclear conversation during the amazing attack of Israel. Two days ago, Trump told Iran that he would participate in a significant negotiations before starting a two -week negotiations. But the timeline turned out to be much shorter.
What did the United States blown and what weapons did you use?
The United States said it has hit three nuclear scenes in Fordo, Natanz and ISFAHAN.
Fordo is hidden from the mountain south of Tehran and is considered deeper underground than the channel tunnel that connects Britain and France.
The depth of the grapes under the surface of the earth has become difficult to reach with Israel’s weapons. Only the United States was considered a “bunkerbuster” bomb and it was as big enough to destroy grapes.
The US bomb is called the GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Peretrator (MOP). According to experts, the weight is 13,000 kg (30,000 lb) and can penetrate about 18m of concrete or 61m before explosion.
Since the FORDO tunnel is thought to be 80m ~ 90m under the surface, MOP is the only bomb that can not be successful but can approach.
US officials confirmed that the rags were used for the strike in the CBS and two were hit according to each goal.
What is the impact on Iran’s earth?
It is not clear whether the US attack is damaged or injured or injured by nuclear facilities.
Hassan Abedini’s broadcaster political director said Iran has evacuated these three nuclear sites with “electricity.”
He appeared on the state television and said Iran said, “The ingredients were already turned off, so they didn’t hit much.”
Trump said in his television speech, “The nuclear strengthening facility is completely gone.”
But for the BBC news channel, Mark Kimmit, a former US Secretary of State, was much more prudent.
“There is no way to suggest that it has always been destroyed,” he said.
Iran said more than 200 people have died and more than 1,200 people have been injured since the recent battle with Israel began.
Israel, meanwhile, is raising security with the US attack on Iran’s major nuclear sites.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said Israel has strengthened its national public security restrictions.
Upgrades, including “Prohibition of educational activities, meetings and workplaces,” occur after the US strike in Iran.
How can Iran retaliate?
Iran has been greatly weakened by Israel’s attack on military bases so far, as well as the dismantling of local proxy in Lebanon (Hezbola), Syria, and Gaza (Hamas). But Iran can still suffer a significant amount of damage.
Iranian officials warned of the US participation and warned that they would suffer “irreversible damage” and in danger of the war war.
It threatened the US base in the region with retaliation. The United States operates military sites in at least 19 regions of the Middle East, including Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
One of Iran’s most obvious goals is the fifth fleet headquarters of the US Navy in Mina Salman, Bahrain.
It also aims to be an important transportation path that connects Persia Bay to the Indian Ocean and is known as the Hormuz Strait, which is transported by 30%of the world’s oil supply. You can also attack other maritime routes that make the global market unstable.
Iran also aimed at the assets of a neighboring country that recognizes that it is helping the United States, which can lead to war all over the region.
Does Trump need to approve Congress to send the United States to war?
Under US law, the president has no only authority to officially declare war in other countries. Parliament -Members of the House of Representatives and members of the Senate.
But the law also says the president is the commander of the army. In other words, he can deploy US troops and carry out military operations without formal war declarations.
For example, Trump’s decision to carry out a raid in Syria in 2017 against the Assad government did not require parliamentary approval. Instead, Trump unilaterally cited national security and humanitarian reasons.
Some lawmakers on both sides of the passage have recently tried to restrict Trump’s ability to order the US strike to Iran by pursuing a resolution of war power through parliament, but it can take several weeks to participate in official voting, and such measures are more symbolic than practical.
