WASHINGTON — The United States struck three nuclear sites in Iran on Saturday, President Donald Trump announced.

B-2 bombers released several Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs, commonly referred to as “bunker busters,” during the U.S. operation over Iran, as confirmed by a U.S. official.

A number of Tomahawk cruise missiles were also fired at targets inside Iran from a U.S. Navy submarine, the official confirmed.

Following the strikes, Trump addressed the nation, calling it a “spectacular military success.”

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth will speak from the Pentagon at 8 a.m. ET on Sunday.

Middle East nations express ‘concern’ over US airstrikes on Iran

Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Iraq and Oman all expressed concern over the U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday.

Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Ministry issued a statement highlighting its “great concern,” emphasizing the importance of “making every effort to exercise restraint, reduce tensions, and prevent escalation” in these “extremely sensitive circumstances.”

Qatar’s Foreign Ministry issued a warning about “the current dangerous tension in the region, which could have catastrophic effects both regionally and internationally,” expressing its “grave concern” and underscoring “the urgent need to stop all military actions and to promptly return to dialogue and diplomatic means to address unresolved issues.”

Oman — which has in the past served as a mediator in talks between Washington and Tehran — described the American strikes as “illegal aggression” and a “serious violation of international law” in a Foreign Ministry statement posted to X.

Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein, meanwhile, said there was a “grave risk posed by attacks targeting religious leaders or nuclear facilities” in Iran, per a readout published on the Foreign Ministry’s website.

“Such actions could spark widespread chaos and destabilize the entire region,” the readout said, adding that “any strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities could lead to a humanitarian and environmental disaster.”
