OIC condemns Israeli war on Iran but makes no mention of US strike

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Sunday that if Tehran retaliates against US strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites, “it'll be the worst mistake they've ever made.”

Speaking to Fox News, he added that the United States is not looking for war in Iran.

The US top diplomat said Iran has highly enriched uranium in sufficient quantities in order to make at least nine or 10 nuclear bombs.

"They had it all in place, now not so much," he added.

The United States deliberately limited the scope of its military operation on Iranian nuclear sites, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Sunday, adding that Tehran has received direct messages about the strike.

“We conducted a precision strike in the middle of the night against three nuclear facilities in Iran, Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan,” Hegseth said, adding that the US “devastated the Iranian nuclear program, but it’s worth noting the operation did not target Iranian troops or the Iranian people.”

“This mission was not, and has not, been about regime change.”

Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dan Caine also described the operation’s execution: bombers departed from the US, with some flying west into the Pacific as a decoy.

Approximately 75 "precision guided weapons" were dropped, including 14 “Massive Ordnance Penetrators,” also known as bunker busters.

Hegseth said no shots were fired at US forces and that the bombers are returning home.

The United States has received indirect communications from Iran in recent days, US Vice President Vance said Sunday, without elaborating on their content or source.

“Iran’s missile program has shown to be a failure,” he added.

"US has pushed Iran's nuclear program back by a very long time."

“Final decision on Iran strikes was made right before they happened,” he added.

Washington aims to "talk to Iran about a long‑term settlement," Vance noted, but said the US does not seek a regime change.

“We have no interest in boots on the ground,” he added.

Vance said US intelligence reporting motivated the decision to act against Iran, and dismissed fears of a prolonged conflict: “I don’t fear this is going to become a protracted conflict.”

Residents living near nuclear sites in Natanz, Isfahan, and Fordow face no immediate threat and can safely continue their daily lives, Iran’s government spokesperson Fatemeh Mohajerani said Sunday.

“These residents can continue their lives with confidence,” she said.
