00:00The American strike on Iran took just 25 minutes and targeted three nuclear sites,
00:06Fordow, Natanz and Esfahan. The strike on Fordow was the largest and the most complex.
00:12The US used B-2 planes to drop 14 bunker-busting bombs on the uranium enrichment plant,
00:19which is hidden deep in a mountainside south of Tehran. The Fordow tunnels are buried up to 80
00:24meters below the surface, which is why the Americans chose to deploy a specific type of bomb
00:30known as the GBU-57. The bomb weighs 13,000 kilograms and can penetrate 61 meters of earth.
00:38It also is designed to explode twice and is the only weapon that can come close to damaging
00:44the Fordow tunnels. The reason the US targeted those facilities in Operation Midnight Hammer,
00:50President Trump wanting to destroy Iran's nuclear capabilities, with Israel's Prime Minister
00:56Benjamin Netanyahu concerned about an all-out nuclear war. This morning, Iran is now weighing
01:02up its next move in a conflict that will change the face of the Middle East.
