Anti-American graffiti in Iran

President Trump lauded the operation as a "spectacular military success" against the "world’s number one state sponsor of terror", claiming that Iran’s nuclear enrichment facilities had been "completely and totally obliterated".

This comes only weeks after Israel began a series of strikes on Iran – with targeted strikes and car bomb assassinations on generals, politicians, and leading nuclear scientists.
