President Donald Trump announced that the United States will soon launch a forceful attack on an Iranian nuclear facility. Speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump stated, "We will probably attack that area very soon. And there is nothing they can do about it." He added that the U.S. would strike with great force.

The president's remarks came in response to questions about whether Iran had moved nuclear centrifuges to the underground facility known as the Mountain of Pico, located near Natanz. Trump indicated he was unaware of such a move but asserted it was irrelevant, claiming Iran does not possess the necessary materials for uranium enrichment.

We will probably attack that area very soon. And there is nothing they can do about it.

According to CNN, Israel believes Iran has transferred advanced centrifuges and enriched uranium to the underground site. This follows alleged U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities in 2025. The U.S. and Iran have been engaged in escalating cross-border attacks for two weeks, shattering a ceasefire agreement established on June 18 for nuclear program negotiations.

If I thought they could do anything, I would never say it. But we will attack that area very soon, and with great force.
