Trump revealed that Israeli agents who surveyed Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility after a recent strike reported “complete obliteration.” Speaking at a political event, Trump stated, “They have guys that go in there after the hit... and they’re saying it was total obliteration.” The remarks come amid growing speculation over the scale and effectiveness of recent U.S.-Israeli military coordination targeting Iran’s nuclear infrastructure. Fordow, one of Iran’s most fortified and secretive nuclear sites, has long been a flashpoint in the West’s confrontation with Tehran.

After vanishing for nearly two weeks amid escalating conflict with Israel, Iran’s Quds Force commander Esmail Qaani has reappeared—alive and seemingly well—at a public gathering in Tehran. His return comes after widespread rumors of his assassination in an Israeli airstrike, even reported by major outlets like The New York Times.

Rubio’s Funny Banter About Jaishankar at QUAD Meet Goes Viral | Jaishankar Scolds US Over Terrorism
At the QUAD Foreign Ministers’ Meeting in Washington D.C., U.S. Secretary Marco Rubio jokingly called Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar a “very busy guy,” noting his constant travel. Jaishankar, alongside diplomats from Japan, Australia, and the U.S., took a firm stance on global terrorism—referencing the recent Pahalgam attack. He warned against equating victims and perpetrators, subtly addressing U.S. policy on Pakistan. The QUAD emphasized Indo-Pacific security, while Jaishankar also met with U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to deepen bilateral defense ties, calling the partnership one of the “most consequential” today.

In a fiery Pentagon briefing, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth lashed out at the media, accusing them of "cheering against Trump" and downplaying the success of Operation Midnight Hammer — a bold series of U.S. airstrikes targeting Iran's nuclear sites. Hegseth defended the mission’s results, slammed leaks of low-confidence intelligence reports, and praised the courage of American pilots and defense crews. With tensions high and politics in play, the Secretary warned that biased reporting could overshadow what he called a “historic” blow to Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
