The Fordow nuclear facility was bombed by the United States on June 22, 2025 (Iran time) and/or June 21st, 2025 (EST). The strike was part of “Operation Midnight Hammer”, which also targeted other Iranian nuclear sites, including Natanz and Isfahan.
Further details about the attack:
• The US used B-2 stealth bombers armed with 30,000-pound bunker-buster bombs (GBU-57s) to penetrate the underground facility.
• A total of 14 bunker-busters were dropped on Fordow and Natanz.
• Satellite images show at least six impact craters at the Fordow facility after the strikes.
• The effectiveness of the strikes and the extent of the damage are still being assessed.
• While US officials claim the attacks “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear ambitions, some Iranian officials have downplayed the damage.
President Trump has likely been considering “Regime Change” as a potential benefit for Iranian citizens, and I agree it’s worth exploring.
