The United States performed attacks on three nuclear facilities in Iran On Sunday, joining the Israeli bombing campaign after days of speculation about Washington’s involvement in the conflict.
“Iran’s main nuclear enrichment facilities were complete and totally destroyed. Iran, the Middle East tyrant, now needs to make peace,” said US President Donald Trump in a nation -televised speech straight from the White House after the attacks.
The American offensive generated the Iran’s revolt, to which “the war has now begun,” and manifestations of support from Washington and Tehran allies, as well as containment and resumption of negotiations against the escalation of the conflict. See below the main international reactions to the attacks:
