US Terror Alert Raised After Trump “Obliterates” Iran’s Nuclear Sites as Israel Launches New Strikes

June 22, 2025 – Global tensions have reached a boiling point after former U.S. President Donald Trump authorized a coordinated airstrike targeting three of Iran’s key nuclear facilities — Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. The action, reportedly executed with heavy-duty bunker-busting bombs and precision missiles, has prompted Israel to carry out additional strikes — plunging the region into a high-stakes conflict and triggering a nationwide terror alert in the United States.
Trump Declares Victory: “Totally Obliterated”
In a defiant televised address, Trump described the attacks as a “spectacular military success,” claiming the nuclear sites were “completely and totally obliterated.” He warned that if Iran does not “make peace,” the U.S. would intensify its military response.
Early satellite assessments confirm widespread surface destruction, though the full extent of damage to underground facilities remains uncertain. Iran has stated that much of its nuclear material was moved prior to the strike — a claim that cannot yet be verified.
Iran Retaliates — “The Game Is Not Over”
In retaliation, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard launched dozens of ballistic missiles toward Israeli targets, wounding dozens and damaging several facilities. A senior aide to Iran’s Supreme Leader warned that the response was only the beginning, saying ominously, “The game is not over.”
Iran has also threatened to block the Strait of Hormuz and directly target U.S. military bases in the Middle East, including those in Qatar, Bahrain, and Iraq.
U.S. Raises Terror Alert
In the aftermath of the strikes, U.S. intelligence agencies elevated the national terror threat level, citing increased risks of retaliation on American soil. Major airports, Jewish institutions, and federal buildings have stepped up security.
Officials are particularly concerned about possible lone-wolf or cyberattacks from groups allied with Iran, such as Hezbollah or proxy militias in Iraq and Syria.
Global Response: Condemnation and Urgency
Nations around the world are reacting with alarm:
- Gulf countries have placed their militaries on high alert
- Europe, China, and Russia are urging an immediate ceasefire
- The United Nations called an emergency session to address what it described as a “dire threat to international peace and security”
The Bigger Picture
This marks a major turning point in U.S.–Iran–Israel relations:
- Direct U.S. strikes on Iranian soil — the first since the Iranian revolution
- An emboldened Israel launching simultaneous raids
- Iran’s strategic threats to oil supply lines and Western military assets
- A volatile situation that could easily expand into a multi-country war
Final Thoughts
What began as a tense standoff has rapidly turned into a high-risk conflict with global consequences. As missiles fall and rhetoric intensifies, the world watches anxiously for a diplomatic off-ramp. But if the current trajectory holds, this could become the most dangerous international crisis in decades.
