The White House released photos taken from inside the White House’s Situation Room on Saturday as American bombers knocked out nuclear facilities in Iran.

The White House posted a series of seven photos on X showing President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, Joint Chiefs Chairman Dan Caine, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, and others huddled together watching the mission progress.

American B-2 bombers dropped payloads on three Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday. Bombs struck the nuclear facilities Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.

The White House had said Thursday that the president planned to make a decision on whether or not to bomb Iran “within the next two weeks.” Trump addressed the nation after the mission.

“Tonight, I can report to the world that the strikes were a spectacular military success. Iran’s key nuclear facilities have been completely and totally obliterated,” the president said.

Trump threatened further action against Iran unless Tehran chooses peace.

“This cannot continue. There will be either peace or tragedy for Iran — far greater than we have witnessed over the last eight days. Remember, there are many targets left,” Trump said. “Tonight was the most difficult of them all — by far — and perhaps the most lethal, but if peace does not come quickly, we will go after those other targets with precision, speed, and skill. Most of them can be taken out in a matter of minutes.”

In the United States, the strike on Iran has already sparked calls for impeachment from Democrats in Congress.

“The President’s disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers,” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said. “He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) defended the president in a post on X, noting that “[l]eaders in Congress were aware of the urgency of this situation and the Commander-in-Chief evaluated that the imminent danger outweighed the time it would take for Congress to act.”

WASHINGTON—Hours after the United States launched successful strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, President Donald Trump addressed the nation and issued a stern warning to Iran: make peace, or face future attacks.

Trump delivered his address at 10:00 p.m. Saturday evening, flanked by Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, only a few hours after he announced on Truth Social that the United States had “completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan.”

“All planes are now outside of Iran air space,” Trump shared in the post, around 8:00 p.m. on Saturday. “A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home. Congratulations to our great American Warriors. There is not another military in the World that could have done this.”

Speaking Saturday evening, Trump reminded the world that for 40 years, Iran has called for death to America and death to Israel. He described the strikes on the Iranian nuclear facilities as “a spectacular military success,” noting that “Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated.”

“They’ve been killing our people, blowing off their arms, blowing off their legs with roadside bombs,” he said. “That was their specialty.”

The president congratulated Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying, “We worked as a team, like perhaps no team has ever worked before.” He also thanked the Israeli military and the “great American patriots” who conducted the strikes on Saturday.

“With all of that being said, this cannot continue. There will be either peace or there will be tragedy for Iran far greater than we have witnessed over the last eight days,” the president vowed. “Remember, there are many targets left. Tonight’s was the most difficult of them all by far, perhaps the most lethal, but if peace does not come quickly, we will go after those other targets with precision, speed, and skill.”

Hegseth will hold a press conference at the Pentagon at 8:00 a.m. on Sunday, Trump said, before concluding: “I want to thank everybody and in particular, God. I want to just say we love you, God, and we love our great military, protect them.”

“God bless the Middle East, God bless Israel and God bless America,” he said.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Thursday that Trump would decide whether to strike Iran “within the next two weeks.”

Trump has backed Israel’s airstrikes on Iran, which have taken out some of the radical Islamic regime’s nuclear facilities and military leaders, while urging the Ayatollah to come to the negotiating table. Before Saturday, Trump had not ruled out direct military action against Iran, going so far as saying that the United States knows “exactly where the so-called ‘Supreme Leader’ is hiding.”

Leavitt addressed the speculation surrounding the president’s thinking on conflict, reading a statement from Trump in which the president stated: “Based on the fact that there’s a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future, I will make my decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks.”

Iran escalated the conflict on Thursday with a direct airstrike on an Israeli hospital, a move that Israel Health Minister Uriel Buso called an “act of terrorism and a crossing of a red line.”
