US Inserts Itself Into Israel's War Against Iran

IRAN, JUN 22 – The United States targeted three Iranian nuclear sites in a major airstrike to prevent nuclear weapon development, marking a notable escalation in the Israel-Iran conflict, officials said.

  • On Sunday, June 22, 2025, the United States conducted airstrikes against three Iranian sites related to nuclear development, including the Fordo uranium enrichment facility, thereby aligning its actions with Israel’s operations targeting Iran’s nuclear program.
  • The strikes followed over a week of Israeli attacks and aimed to weaken Iran’s nuclear ambitions amid growing regional tensions and doubts about Iran's nuclear stockpile.
  • Satellite images show extensive damage at Fordo, where Iran likely sealed tunnels and relocated enriched uranium to hardened, undisclosed locations before the attack.
  • President Trump asserted that the sites were entirely destroyed, while Pentagon officials described the damage as extremely severe; according to Israeli army spokesman Effie Defrin, the harm inflicted was substantial, though evaluations involving the U.S. were still underway.
  • The strikes heightened fears of wider conflict as Iran vowed full resistance and missile barrages hit Israel, while global leaders urged restraint and the UN scheduled an emergency meeting.
