Iran said Monday that the U.S. strike on its nuclear sites had expanded the range of legitimate targets for its armed forces and branded U.S. President Donald Trump a “gambler” for joining Israel’s military campaign.
Speaking in a video statement, Ebrahim Zolfaqari, spokesperson for Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya military headquarters, warned Washington of severe consequences. “Mr Trump, the gambler, you may start this war, but we will be the ones to end it,” he said in English.
The statement comes as Iran and Israel continue to exchange air and missile strikes in the wake of Saturday’s U.S. attacks on Iranian nuclear sites, which Trump claimed could destabilize or even topple Tehran’s government.
Commercial satellite imagery showed significant damage to Iran’s Fordow facility, though experts said it remained unclear how badly its underground uranium-enrichment systems were hit.
Trump boasted online that “monumental damage” had been inflicted, with “the biggest damage far below ground level.”
General Dan Caine, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said U.S. forces launched 75 precision munitions and over two dozen Tomahawk missiles at Iran’s Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan nuclear sites.
Meanwhile, the International Atomic Energy Agency confirmed there was no increase in off-site radiation but said the underground impact was still being assessed.
An Iranian source told Reuters that much of Fordow’s enriched uranium stock had been relocated prior to the strike, though this remains unverified.
