"A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow," Trump wrote on X. " All planes are safely on their way home," he added. Iran confirmed the strikes on its nuclear facilities but claimed the sites had been evacuated beforehand.Following the U.S. strike in Iran, Israel's Home Front Command immediately updated its public safety directives. All regions of the country are now restricted to essential activities only. The directives include a ban on educational programs, public gatherings, and non-essential work.
