U.S. deploys B-1 bombers over Iran for first Middle East mission since 1998, targeting ballistic missile sites.
The U.S. Air Force has sent its B-1B Lancer bombers deep into Iran to target ballistic missile sites as part of Operation Epic Fury. This mission marks a serious escalation in Middle East tensions and showcases the strategic reach of American air power.
The Lancer can fly at supersonic speeds and carry up to 75,000 pounds of bombs, making it a cornerstone of U.S. strategic bombing operations. Its long-range capability allows precise strikes on critical targets.
This mission marks the Lancer’s return to the Middle East nearly 25 years after its first combat operation during Operation Desert Fox in 1998. Centcom has not revealed the exact munitions used.

Israel strikes Tehran anew as conflict escalates and global markets react
Israel strikes Tehran after Khamenei’s death; U.S. warns of prolonged conflict as tensions escalate in the Middle East.
Israel strikes Tehran after Khamenei’s death; U.S. warns of prolonged conflict as tensions escalate in the Middle East.
Israel has launched a new wave of strikes on Tehran, following the reported killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei. U.S. President Donald Trump has warned the campaign could last up to a month, framing the operation as a move to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear capabilities.
Iran has retaliated with missile attacks, while its Revolutionary Guards claim responsibility for assaults on oil tankers in the Gulf. The escalating hostilities are already disrupting global shipping lanes and air travel, sending shockwaves through international markets.
With reports of the first U.S. casualties emerging and Washington declaring the Tehran operation a success, tensions across the Middle East are intensifying rapidly. The question now is how far this conflict could spread — and at what cost.
