The United States and Israel announced the launch of a large-scale military campaign against Iran early Saturday, following weeks of warnings from Donald Trump urging Tehran to negotiate a new nuclear agreement and condemning its crackdown on protesters earlier this year.
In a video shared on Truth Social, Trump said the U.S. had begun what he described as a massive and ongoing operation aimed at stopping what he called a radical dictatorship from threatening American national security. The Pentagon named the campaign “Operation Epic Fury.”
