Amid escalating tensions in the Middle East, US B-2 stealth bombers were tracked flying across the Pacific Ocean, prompting global speculation about a potential American military response in support of Israel’s campaign against Iran’s nuclear infrastructure.
Welcome to our ongoing coverage of the developing Israel-Iran conflict, now entering its ninth day.
US Stealth Bombers on the Move
Multiple B-2 Spirit bombers departed from a base in the central United States overnight. They were later detected flying off the coast of California alongside aerial refueling aircraft, according to flight tracking data and military observers.
The B-2 is capable of deploying the powerful GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator, a 13,607 kg bunker-busting bomb designed to penetrate reinforced underground facilities — such as Iran’s fortified nuclear sites. Israel does not currently possess this class of weaponry, heightening speculation about US involvement in any potential strike.
US Begins Evacuation of Citizens from Israel
As the conflict deepens, the US State Department has confirmed it has started evacuating American citizens from Israel. The move suggests the situation on the ground remains highly volatile and may escalate further in the coming days.
Iran Responds to Escalation
In response to the latest developments, Iranian officials said the country remains open to negotiations but will “never accept reducing nuclear activities to zero.” Tehran has condemned Israel’s continued air campaign, which it views as direct aggression.
The latest Israeli strike reportedly hit the Isfahan nuclear facility, one of Iran’s largest. According to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), the bombing was aimed at further degrading Iran’s uranium enrichment capabilities, following a previous strike on June 13.
President Trump Issues Ultimatum
US President Donald Trump stated Friday that Iran has “a maximum of two weeks” to de-escalate or face possible US military action. The President indicated that a decision regarding a potential US air strike may come sooner than that timeline, depending on Iran’s next moves.
