Congressman Tim Moore of North Carolina has released a statement following President Donald J. Trump’s announcement regarding military actions against Iran. The United States targeted three nuclear sites in the country.

Moore commented on the situation, stating, “Iran’s radical regime is a threat to freedom everywhere and has spent decades spreading terror across the globe. President Trump made clear that any attack on Americans or our allies would be met with overwhelming force. May God bless and protect our troops as we confront the evil of Iran and its terrorist proxies.”

President Trump had earlier communicated via Truth Social about the successful execution of attacks on Iranian nuclear sites at Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan. He stated, “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. Congratulations to our great American Warriors. There is not another military in the World that could have done this. NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE! Thank you for your attention to this matter.”

The action underscores ongoing tensions between the U.S. and Iran amid international discussions concerning nuclear proliferation.
