Trump enters the war and announces attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities
According to The New York Times, the government explained that several bunker bombs of 30,000 pounds were launched and that the initial damage evaluations indicated that the installation had been “withdrawn from the table”.
Yoav Gallant, former Minister of Defense of Israel, said in a social media publication that President Trump had made a “bold decision for the United States, Israel and all humanity.”
Still on Friday, in front of the UN Security Council, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Rafael Grossi, said that “attacks on nuclear facilities in the Islamic Republic of Iran caused a strong degradation in nuclear security and protection in Iran.” “Although so far they have not led to a radiological release that affects the public, there is a danger that this happens,” he warned.
So far, Trump had been insisting that he would act only in the defense of Israel and had given two weeks to make a decision to involve the attacks. His announcement, therefore, took diplomats and political groups by surprise.
The Democrats immediately warned that Trump had entered war without the approval of the US Congress.
The measure still promises to cause controversy within its own support nucleus. His base insisted that he had elected Trump to the White House to end US military involvement abroad, especially in the Middle East.
