Live updates: Trump addresses nation after strikes 'obliterated' Iranian targets

President Trump said U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities Saturday were a "spectacular military success" during an address to the nation from the East Room of the White House.

"Iran's key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated. Iran, the bully of the Middle East, must now make peace," he said around 10 p.m.

The bombs targeted three nuclear sites in Natanz, Esfahan and Fordow, located inside a mountain. Six "bunker buster" bombs were reportedly dropped on Fordow, while more than two dozen Tomahawk missiles were launched at the other two sites.
