Following the recent missile strikes between Israel and Iran – as well as President Donald Trump’s targeting of Iranian nuclear sites – it is only expected that concerns of WWIII have surfaced in headlines and social media posts.
However, if the worst really was to occur, who is likely to be called up to defend the nation?
On June 21, the United States launched a military operation dubbed “Operation Midnight Hammer,” targeting three of Iran’s nuclear facilities: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. The strikes, authorized by President Trump, aimed to curb Iran’s alleged development of nuclear weapons.
n a statement on Truth Social, President Trump said: “We have 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. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home.”
