The White House offered a glimpse into the highly secure Situation Room where President Donald Trump made the momentous decision to target Iran’s nuclear sites.

The exclusive photographs posted on X on Saturday evening revealed who was in the room as Trump made the call to strike Iran’s nuclear sites.

President Trump was joined on Saturday in the White House Situation Room by Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan Caine, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

It was reported that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was also present in the Situation Room, although she was not visible in the official photos shared by the White House.

Trump himself was seated in the middle of the room, donning a Make America Great Again hat with ’45-47′ embroidered on the side.

He surprised the world a little before 8 p.m. ET Saturday by announcing on Truth Social that he had given the go-ahead to attack Iran.

Trump used six massive 30,000-pound ‘bunker buster’ bombs and 30 Tomahawk missiles to destroy Fordow, Natanz and Esfahan.

Trump addressed the nation hours later, calling Saturday’s strikes on a trio of Iranian nuclear sites a ‘spectacular military success.’

He also gave a stark warning to Tehran that more attacks would be coming if the regime didn’t make peace.

‘Our objective was the destruction of Iran’s nuclear enrichment capacity and a stop to the nuclear threat posed by the world’s number one state sponsor of terror. Tonight, I can report to the world that the strikes were a spectacular military success.’

Addressing the nation Saturday evening, President Donald Trump announced complete success in eliminating Iran’s three key nuclear enrichment sites.

‘Tonight, I can report to the world that the strikes were a spectacular military success. Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated.’

During his speech, President Trump also added that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Chairman of the Joints Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan Caine will brief reporters at the Pentagon on the U.S. military operation against Iran.

Hegseth, a former Fox News commentator and Army National Guard officer, stood behind Trump during his remarks in the East Wing, although he had to quickly reposition himself to be seen.

Trump was also flanked by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President JD Vance.

‘Tomorrow, Gen. Caine [and] Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, will have a press conference at 8 am at the Pentagon,’ Trump said at the end of his speech to the nation. ‘And I want to just thank everybody, and in particular, God, I want to just say we love you, God and we love our great military protect them,’ he said.

During his speech, Trump also thanked the American pilots who flew the B-52 bombers over Iran to drop the bombs over Iran’s nuclear facilities Saturday.

He also thanked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the allied approach to eliminating Iran’s nuclear capabilities.
