US B-2s Obliterate Iran's Main Nuclear Sites; Iran Declares War

In a massive escalation, US B-2 bombers destroyed Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan nuclear facilities. Iran's foreign ministry declared 'war starts now'. This shatters the previous stalemate and last-minute diplomacy pattern. The strike occurred despite severe US missile depletion, signaling a strategic shift. Implications for oil prices, regional stability, and US domestic politics are enormous. Iran is expected to retaliate, potentially targeting US bases, Gulf energy fields, or maritime chokepoints. The nuclear program is severely damaged but hidden facilities (Pickax Mountain) remain a concern.
