Iran Vows Revenge After U.S. Nuclear Strikes — Trump Declares ‘Bullseye’ as Tensions Soar

🇺🇸 U.S. Strikes Iran’s Nuclear Sites
Late Saturday, U.S. B‑2 bombers and Tomahawk missiles struck three key Iranian nuclear facilities—Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. President Trump hailed it a “bullseye,” stating the sites were “obliterated” and “monumental damage” was inflicted on underground infrastructure.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth described the operation as a “spectacular military success,” aimed to degrade Tehran’s nuclear capabilities—not to topple the regime.
🇮🇷 Iran’s Warning to the U.S.: “Decisive Response”
Hours after the attacks, Iran’s military threatened a “decisive response” if the U.S. is deemed responsible. Gen. Ebrahim Zolfaqari called Trump a “gambler,” warning: “You may start this war—but we will end it.”
Iran’s UN envoy declared the strikes “blatant aggression” and promised Tehran will decide the “timing, nature, and scale” of retaliation.
🕊️ Regional Fallout & Global Reaction
Israel and Iran have responded with expanded missile exchange, including Iranian hits near hospitals in Beersheba—over 70 injured—while Israel destroyed missile launch infrastructure in western Iran.
Oil prices have jumped over 3%, while European nations and the U.N. urge restraint. Negotiators are pressuring for talks, warning of a broader regional war.
📣 Trump’s Hardline Response
On Truth Social, Trump reiterated his stance: “Bullseye!!!” and predicted regime change in Tehran: “If the current Iranian Regime is unable to MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN, why wouldn’t there be a Regime change?”
He emphasized the U.S. knows Khamenei’s location and hinted that further strikes could follow, while insisting diplomacy was still on the table.
