President Trump speaks after US airstrike on Iran
President Trump said Iran's key uranium enrichment facilities have been completely destroyed.
According to RIA Novosti on June 22, after the airstrike on Iran's nuclear facility, US President Donald Trump made his first statements at the White House about the results.
The purpose of the strikes, Mr Trump said, was to limit Iran’s nuclear capabilities. Significant uranium enrichment facilities had been completely destroyed. The US president stressed that “Iran must now make peace”, otherwise further attacks from Washington could be much worse. Any further action by Iran would be met with an even more severe retaliation.
“Either peace will come, or Iran will suffer a tragedy far greater than the one we have witnessed over the last eight days. Remember, there are still many goals to be scored,” President Donald Trump declared.
The US leader also thanked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying that Tel Aviv was working “like never before”.
On the morning of June 22 (Vietnam time), US B-2 bombers dropped 12 GBU-57 MOP bunker-buster bombs on the Fordow facility and two on the Natanz facility. The Isfahan and Natanz complexes were attacked with 30 Tomahawk cruise missiles launched from submarines.
Following the US airstrike, Israel announced that Iran had fired a new series of missiles into its territory.
