Iran: The War Has Now Begun
In the first reaction from the Iranian Revolutionary Guard to the US strikes targeting nuclear facilities in Iran, they said: "Now the war has begun." The United States launched a military attack on several Iranian nuclear sites at dawn in what was described as the "boldest strike in years" against Tehran's nuclear infrastructure, sparking a wave of tension and mixed international reactions. According to US media reports, the strikes targeted heavily fortified nuclear sites, most notably the underground Fordow facility, as well as sites in Natanz and Isfahan. The US forces used special bunker-buster bombs dropped by B-2 bombers, alongside Tomahawk cruise missiles launched from naval ships in the region. Fox News reported that the operation destroyed critical infrastructure at these sites, considering that "Iran's nuclear ambitions have officially ended." In a televised speech, US President Donald Trump announced that the operation aimed to "eliminate Iran's nuclear capabilities and prevent any future threats to global security," confirming that "the three facilities were completely destroyed," and described the event as a "remarkable military success and a deterrent message to Tehran." Trump warned that upcoming strikes would be "more severe and extensive" if Iran did not respond to calls for peace. On its part, Tehran strongly condemned the attack, which Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi considered a blatant violation of international law and the United Nations Charter. He wrote on the X: "The United States has committed a serious violation by attacking peaceful nuclear facilities, and the events of this morning will have severe consequences." Araghchi stressed that "Iran retains all options for a legitimate response in defense of its sovereignty," warning of lasting repercussions from these strikes.
