US President Donald Trump has announced that US forces will soon bomb Iran's nuclear facility in Natanz.
According to Report, Trump made the statement during an interview with Hugh Hewitt on Salem Radio Network, declaring that in the coming days the US would deliver serious strikes against Iran.
"We're going to take out Pickaxe Mountain. Tell the Iranians to be ready," Trump said in an interview on the Hugh Hewitt Show.
"We're going to hit them very hard tonight and we're going to hit them hard tomorrow. And there's not a damn thing they can do about it," he said on the Hugh Hewitt Show.
Pickaxe Mountain, located near Iran's heavily damaged Natanz uranium enrichment facility, is a heavily fortified site that hosts two deeply buried tunnel complexes that experts assess as beyond the reach of the most powerful bunker buster bombs in the US arsenal.
Earlier, it was reported that Trump had formally notified Congress about the launch of a military campaign against Iran. Against this backdrop, US Central Command (CENTCOM) announced that on July 14 at 16:00 (EDT), the blockade of Iranian ports would be reinstated.
