💥 What Happened:

  • US attacked 3 nuclear sites in Iran (Fordow, Natanz, Isfahan) using “bunker-buster” bombs and missiles.
  • President Trump claims sites “totally obliterated,” but no proof shown yet.
  • Iran says no radioactive leaks; IAEA confirms no contamination.

🇮🇷 Iran’s Response:

  • Threatens retaliation: Foreign Minister in Turkey says Iran “must respond.”
  • Hardliners furious: State TV shows map of US bases in Middle East; calls them “legitimate targets.”
  • Supreme Leader’s warning: Ayatollah Khamenei said US would face “irreparable harm” if it joined the war.

🛡️ How Iran Prepared:

  • Satellite images show trucks moving equipment out of Fordow before strikes.
  • Entrance tunnels filled with earth to limit damage.

😠 Public Reaction in Iran:

  • Anger: Many Iranians online condemn attacks; director Asghar Farhadi posts patriotic mountain photo.
  • Divisions: Some abroad/in Iran support strikes, hoping they weaken the government.
  • State warns: Supporting US/Israel is “treason” – collaborators told to surrender or face “harshest punishment.”

🌍 International Concern:

  • Fears grow that conflict could spread across the Middle East.

⚠️ Key Facts:

  • Fordow is buried deep under mountains – hardest site to destroy.
  • No deaths reported; limited smoke seen near Fordow after strikes.

Simplified Terms:

  • Bunker-buster bombs: Super-powerful bombs that dig underground before exploding.
