Secretary of State Marco Rubio on U.S. Striking Iran and Defending Other Countries From Iran

  • The United States launched airstrikes targeting three Iranian facilities involved in nuclear development, located in Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan, with the aim of impairing Iran's ability to advance its nuclear weapons program.
  • The strikes followed concerns about Iran enriching uranium up to 60%, which Rubio said indicated progress on a nuclear weapon despite unclear direct intelligence on Khamenei's orders.
  • Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated the operation was precise, not a regime change effort, and emphasized the U.S. is ready to meet diplomatically if Iran chooses peace.
  • Rubio stressed the U.S. will defend its personnel and bases, maintains about 40,000 troops in the Middle East, and warned that closing the Strait of Hormuz would be a suicidal move for Iran.
  • The strikes set a diplomatic ultimatum for Iran, implying consequences if they attack Americans or allies, while leaving future U.S. military actions undisclosed but prepared.
