*Middle East Situation Update* 🇺🇸 Two senior U.S. Department of Defense officials: > Three B-2 bombers armed with penetrating bombs were used to attack the Fordow base. > The Natanz and Isfahan facilities were attacked with Tomahawk missiles launched from submarines, but it is unclear how many missiles were fired at each site. > Not all U.S. allies in the region were notified in advance of the planned attack on Iran; some were informed while the fighters were already in flight. 🇮🇷 Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian at a cabinet meeting this morning: > The United States tried to hide its role in the Israeli aggression against Iran, but after the decisive Iranian response and the inability of the Israeli entity, the Americans were forced to enter the fray. > The powerful strikes launched by the Iranian Armed Forces this morning against the Israeli entity are, in fact, a response to aggressive US policies. > The Israeli entity has neither the capability nor the courage to attack Iran alone.
