The White House defends B-2 bombing on Iran in the middle of a new report, a certain uranium has survived

The White House maintains that the operation of last month, Midnight Hammer, “erased” Iran’s nuclear sites despite a new report from the New York Times suggesting that Israeli officials have concluded that some enriched uranium survived the targeted American attack.

According to timePart of the stock of uranium stock enriched with the bomb located underground survived bombs abandoned by B-2 furtive bombers on June 21, 2025, which can always be accessible to Iranian nuclear engineers.

Asked about the report, Anna Kelly, an assistant press secretary of the White House, told Fox News: “As President Trump said on several occasions, Operation Midnight Hammer has completely erased Iranian nuclear installations. The whole world is safer thanks to his decisive leadership.”

The White House messaging reiterates what President Donald Trump has said attacks since the night, namely that Iran’s nuclear sites were “completely erased”.

Operation Midnight Hammer began when B-2 stealth bombers took off from Whiteman Air Force Base in the Missouri at 12:01 p.m. on June 21. Some of the bombers have stolen to the west and in the Pacific as a decoy, while the main strike force of seven B-2 bombers, each with two members of Crew, stole silently east with minimal communication while they are undertaking the 18-hour flight to the target zone.

The flight forced the plane to fill up several times without landing, and when Overland, the strike group linked to the escort and to support the planes of Central Command.

Around 5 p.m. HNE, an American submarine launched more than two dozen Tomahawk land attack cruise missiles against key surface infrastructure targets while the main strike force entered Iranian airspace.

Additional tactics were used to deceive the Iranian forces while group B-2 Strike approached Fordow and Natanz. In total, 14 massive weapons of ammunition penetrator (MOP), commonly known as bunker-buses, were abandoned on Fordow and Natanz, while the Tomahawk missiles launched by American submarines were the last to strike, reaching targets in Isfahan.

After the mission, Trump posted on Truth Social that the American army made “massive precision strikes on three key nuclear installations of the Iranian regime: Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan”.

Trump also addressed the nation on television, tapping the success of Operation Midnight Hammer.

“Iran’s nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and completely erased,” said Trump. “And Iran, the Middle East intimidator, must now make peace. If they do not do so, future attacks would be much larger and much easier.”

Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth came against the “Fake News” media since attacks for questioning the United States on Iran destroyed the country’s nuclear program.

During a NATO summit last month, Hegseth criticized CNN and the New York Times, arguing that they are working “to find a way to run” the news.

“There is a reason why the president calls for false news for what it is,” said Hegseth. “These pilots, these supplies, these fighters, these air defenders. The skill and the courage it took to go to the enemy territory by stealing 36 hours in the name of the American people and the world to eliminate a nuclear program exceeds what anyone in this audience can imagine.”

“And then the instinct, the instinct of CNN, the instinct of the New York Times, is to try to find a way to run it for their own political reasons, to try to hurt President Trump or our country,” he added. “They don’t care about what the troops think. They don’t care about what the world thinks. They want to make it run to try to make it look bad according to a leak.

“Of course, we have all seen a lot of leaks. And what do (what do) do the leaks?
