Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department forced to backtrack after bizarre condolences for US strike on Iran

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department revised and removed a social media post on Sunday that offered condolences for the “tragic” U.S. bombing of Iranian nuclear sites.

“Our hearts go out to the victims and families affected by the recent bombings in Iran,” the post on X read. “Although this tragic event occurred overseas, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is closely monitoring the situation with our local, state, and federal partners.”

The department eventually revised the post, erasing the sentence concerning the U.S. strikes before it was entirely withdrawn from X. It was not clear if there were any injuries or casualties during the operation.

A sheriff’s department spokesperson told Fox News Digital that he wasn’t aware of the initial post expressing condolences.

Fordow, which many international experts believe is key to Iran’s nuclear program, is buried almost 300 feet beneath a mountain. 

“At midnight Friday into Saturday morning, a large B-2 strike package comprised of bombers launched from the continental United States,” Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan Caine said during a Sunday morning press conference from the Pentagon. 

Caine said the U.S. was able to maintain the element of surprise during the entire operation.

Iranian officials were still assessing the significance of the strikes, but the Trump administration has described them as a success that has degraded Tehran’s ability to develop a nuclear weapon.
