Donald Trump has officially approved plans to attack Iran, but he is giving Tehran time to abandon its nuclear program.
Iran’s well-defended Fordauen Richement Facility is the first potential target in the United States, the Wall Street Journal It has been reported. The plants are buried beneath the mountain and are considered out of reach by military experts. Still, the most powerful bombs are the only ammunition that can penetrate as much as necessary to permanently damage the installation, except for the huge weapon intruder (MOP) of the US-made GBU-57A/B. It has been reported According to atlasgazette on Wednesday.
The US deployed military refueling aircraft, more fighter aircraft, more fighter aircraft, more aircraft carriers and other warships in the Middle East, appearing to be prepared ahead of the attack on Iran. However, Peter Hegseth is confident that the measure is “inherently defensive,” Ewn added.
UN: No reliable signs
The UN Nuclear Watch Office, which conducts testing in Iran, said it cannot guarantee that Iran’s nuclear program is completely peaceful, but it has “reliable signs” of an aggressive and coordinated weapons programme. I said.
“I’m not looking for a fight, but if it’s a choice between fighting and having nuclear weapons, you have to do what you have to do,” Trump told reporters Wednesday.
Today, Thursday, WSJ I said Trump was asked if he would hit Fordow and he replied, “I might do that, I might not do that.” And he repeated his claim to Iran’s unconditional surrender: “Next week will be very big and perhaps a week less.”
But that doesn’t happen if Trump’s decision is to Iran’s surrender and abandon the nuclear program, according to Tehran’s leader.
Iran will not surrender under pressure
Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei previously said that his country did not surrender under pressure and warned that US military intervention would “produce serious irreparable consequences.”
In his speech to his country, Ayatollah added, “Israel has made a huge mistake and will be punished for this.” These statements came after Iran sent a mixed signal saying it wanted peace talks, while threatening to leave the NPT, a nuclear treaty that leaves Tehran to nuclear-free proliferation.
Some diplomats and their families at the US embassy at Israeli US embassy were evacuated Wednesday. It has been reported.
The government is rushing to evacuate citizens
France 24 said “Governments around the world are trying to evacuate thousands of citizens from Israel and Iran, who are rapidly becoming involved in a helical conflict.”
Israeli US ambassador Mike Huckabee has announced plans to evacuate Americans. “The embassy is working to evacuate and depart the cruise ship for American citizens who want to leave Israel,” he said.
Australia has begun evacuation of around 1,500 citizens from Iran and more than 1,200 citizens from Israel, but the missile barrage is at risk for civilian aircraft to land in either country, Foreign Minister Penny Wong told national broadcaster ABC. “People have no capacity to enter civilian aircraft, and it’s too dangerous and the airspace is closed,” she added.
Israel and Iran continue to trade fires, and according to human rights groups, Iran’s death toll rose above 639. In Israel, 24 people have been killed as a result of the Iranian strike.
And in the meantime, all the world is waiting for a decision from Trump on whether to deploy a bomb that destroys bunkers at Iran’s underground nuclear facility.
