President Donald Trump has made the decision to order U.S. military strikes on Iran's nuclear facility in an attempt to significantly impact Tehran's capabilities while avoiding a broader regional conflict.

Trump announced the strikes on three Iranian enrichment facilities — Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan — emphasizing the successful operation and the safe return of all planes involved. The president's move follows a series of Israeli strikes on Iran, and the U.S. involvement raises questions about the extent of American participation in future attacks.

Trump's decision comes after weeks of Israeli strikes aimed at weakening Iran's defenses and nuclear facilities. The U.S. strikes, involving stealth bombers and bunker buster bombs, are seen as a risky move that could provoke retaliation from Iran.

The U.S. administration had previously pursued diplomatic negotiations with Iran to curb its nuclear program, but the failed attempts led to the recent military intervention. Trump's decision to engage directly in the conflict signals a significant shift from his earlier stance on avoiding foreign conflicts.
