Pentagon sources reported that the US bombings included a secret nuclear facility at the Fordó base with GBU-57 bunker-busting bombs. These bombs are specifically designed to attack the depths of bunker structures and underground tunnels before they detonate.
The reported data indicates that since the beginning of the conflict between Israel and Iran, 24 deaths have been recorded, including one woman who suffered a heart attack. Furthermore, the Iranian Ministry of Health reports that there are more than 400 deaths, contrary to the Washington human rights group, which states that the true figure is 850 dead and nearly 3,400 injured.
