Following US airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian announced the necessity for Iran to retaliate. Dubbed "Midnight Hammer," the US operation reportedly targeted three sites deemed critical for Iran's nuclear development, which President Trump claimed were 'obliterated.' In response, Iran's atomic energy agency reassured that the strikes would not deter its nuclear ambitions. The EU is set to discuss the implications of this escalation on international security, while UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned that the region risks entering a cycle of retaliation.
The US called operation "Midnight Hammer" an 'overwhelming success,' while Iran declared it would respond to the aggression, indicating escalation in tensions over nuclear capabilities.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned against the 'rathole of retaliation' as the Middle East faces a perilous turn after the US bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities.
