America's Top General Says Strike on Iran's Nuclear Bunker Was 15 Years in the Making
- On June 21, 2025, U.S. B-2 stealth bombers dropped fourteen 30,000-pound GBU-57 bunker-buster bombs on Iran's Fordow uranium enrichment site.
- The strike, called Operation Midnight Hammer, was the result of over 15 years of planning, intelligence gathering, and weapon development starting in 2009.
- Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Gen. Dan Razin Caine reported that the weapons hit their targets precisely and removed concrete caps to unleash massive shockwaves underground.
- Pilots recalled the blast as exceptionally intense, comparing its brightness to daylight, while Hegseth described the operation as a historically successful strike.
- The strike caused extensive damage to Fordow, disrupted Iran’s nuclear activities, and played a key role in bringing about a ceasefire that ended the nearly two-week-long hostilities between Iran and Israel.
