America used decoys, bunker-busters to attack nuclear sites
Hegset said that congress members were informed only after the danger of the aircraft and that Trump informed the Republican Congress leadership in advance.
According to the common Chief of General Staff Hegseth and the Air Force General Dan Caine, flights reached the second longest flights of B-2’s operational history. The longest was a 40 -hour journey in the first stage of the Afghanistan War in October 2001.
“This is a plan that takes months and weeks of positioning and preparation for months and weeks so that we can be ready when the President of the United States calls the President of the United States.” “It took a lot of sensitivity. It contained misdirection and the highest operational security.”
Authorities, 75 precision guided guns were used and the operation contains 125 aircraft, he said. Caine, war damage will take time to evaluate, but “all three sites are extremely serious damage and destruction,” he said.
According to a graphics published by Caine and Pentagon, 24 Tomahawk Cruise missiles fired missiles before the B-2 Strikes in Fordow, a submarine of the Carl Vinson carrier strike group in the Arab Sea.
Trump, which addressed the nation on Saturday, claimed that Iran’s “key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and completely destroyed”.
The Caine was more cautious in his assessment: “The last war damage will take some time, but the first war damage assessments show that all three sites maintain extremely severe damage and destruction,” he said.
Joseph Votel, a former commander of the US Central Command and now a man in the Middle East Institute, said that US planes could return to Iran to ensure that the work is finished.
“After an evaluation period, it would not be a surprise for me to go back and hit some of these goals to ensure that we have achieved the effect,” he said.
“This is actually a normal part of our military targeting process, to strike, evaluate, and then strike again to achieve the results we are looking for.”
Hegseth said that the task focuses on destroying Iran’s nuclear program, not the change in the regime in Tehran. He also said that the task was not “open -ended ..
However, Foreign Minister Marco Rubio made it clear that Iran should completely abandon its nuclear arms ambitions.
“At the end of the day, if Iran is determined to be a nuclear weapon power, I think it is at risk, Rub Rubio Pazar said FOX News.
