TRENDING: U.S. Launches “Operation Midnight Hammer” Strikes on Iran

WASHINGTON — In a dramatic escalation of military action against Iran’s nuclear program, the United States has carried out a powerful and highly coordinated strike against three major Iranian nuclear facilities. The Pentagon has confirmed that the overnight mission—codenamed Operation Midnight Hammer—was authorized by President Donald Trump and involved an unprecedented use of U.S. military might, including the first-ever operational deployment of the 30,000-pound GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator, a bunker-busting bomb designed to destroy deeply buried targets.
